My go-to approach for treating anxiety is focusing on the present. I prefer/enjoy/find the best benefit in Carl Rogers' idea that we should “focus on what we can control and let go of what we can't control.”
I teach the following tools in anxiety therapy:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in therapy when they are achieving their goals that we collectively agreed upon. This is demonstrated by their actions, demeanor, attitude, and personal assessments.
Clients can supplement their time in therapy with external practices such as journaling, joining group activities, attending helpful seminars, and/or listening to positive podcasts.
To prepare for your first therapy session, you can write down your main concerns and what you have done in the past to try to alleviate them. Also have a written list of medications you are taking and for what ailments.
Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Amarillo, TX can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day anxiety or your anxiety disorder.
Anxiety therapy involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Thriveworks Amarillo therapists will then work with you to determine where your anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
One of the best ways to deal with anxiety is to learn about your own anxiety: your symptoms, what triggers it, and what coping mechanisms have been effective in the past. When you learn what your anxiety is tied to, it can help you be mindful of what’s really happening as well as prevent and mitigate symptoms by processing and working through the issue in therapy. Other strategies that have been shown to help manage anxiety are meditation, challenging anxious thoughts, exercising, and journaling.
Common symptoms of anxiety include:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be incredibly effective in treating anxiety and anxiety disorders. Other effective techniques include exposure therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR therapy.
Anxiety therapy is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability. We suggest choosing the option that best suits your needs.
On average, people can tend to attend 15 to 20 session of anxiety therapy (five or more months). However, this number is heavily dependent on the type of anxiety that’s being treated and its severity, with many choosing to attend anxiety therapy for a longer period of time to ensure its effectiveness long-term.
Yes, it is worth going to therapy for anxiety. If you are struggling with regular anxious thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety disorder, you should seek expert anxiety help.
Because of the stigma around mental healthcare, many people with anxiety disorders decide not to pursue counseling even though the benefits of therapy may have a positive impact on their lives. But with proper professional treatment and self-care techniques, anxiety can be managed and you can go on to live a fulfilling and happy life.
Your mental and emotional health plays a huge role in your ability to make impactful decisions and navigate day-to-day life. Because of this, it’s important to give feelings of anxiousness the same care and consideration you would give physical ailments such as vision problems, toothaches, or chest pains.
If you have found yourself consumed by feelings of anxiousness and you’re ready to seek anxiety counseling, consider calling the experts at Thriveworks Counseling in Amarillo, TX, to set up a treatment plan. We’re here to help.
Often coupled with depression, anxiety can make daily tasks difficult to complete. It can make you feel as if every movement and moment deserves constant scrutiny, no matter how major or minor the situation may be.
That’s why physical exhaustion (fatigue) is one of the more common symptoms of the disorder. Some of its other common symptoms include:
The list of symptoms above isn’t comprehensive. Many people experience additional symptoms, including physical ones such as chest pains and body aches.
Because anxiety affects different people in different ways, methods of treating anxiety vary depending on the client’s needs and concerns. A professional counselor will be able to recommend possible talk therapy options or medications, as well as self-care steps you can take in between your appointments. Suggestions may include:
A licensed professional will be able to prescribe medication and administer various types of therapy in addition to the self-care methods listed above. Exposure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and other therapy options may be used to help alleviate your anxiety symptoms.
