This can optimally be treated using a combination of CBT, ACT, mindfulness training methods, e.g. meditation and deep breathing. Identifying external triggers and mediating them can also be useful. Sometimes, medication either preventively or as needed (PRN), (seeing a psychiatrist) can also help.
Psychologists are trained in diagnosing anxiety disorders and teaching patients healthier, more effective ways to cope. A form of psychotherapy known as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is highly effective at treating anxiety disorders.
