Depends on severity: Many family physicians and others enjoy working with anxious patients, & can do basic counseling. Often, though, time for this is very limited in primary care clinics. Psychiatrists & psychologists are trained to deal with more severe cases, and can offer more time. Mindfulness meditation can be useful also. Check out "a mindfulness-based stress reduction workbook" by stahl -- it may help!
