Starting Panic attack disorder therapy

What is panic attack disorder therapy?

Panic attack disorder therapy is a specialized therapeutic approach designed to help individuals suffering from recurrent and debilitating panic attacks. During therapy sessions, individuals work closely with trained Thriveworks Chesterfield therapists to identify and understand the triggers and thought patterns that contribute to their panic attacks. Through panic attack disorder therapy, individuals learn to manage their anxiety, develop coping strategies, and regain control over their lives, ultimately leading to a reduction in the severity of panic attacks.

How does panic attack disorder therapy work?

Panic attack disorder therapy often utilizes cognitive-behavioral techniques like exposure therapy and relaxation exercises to help individuals manage and mitigate panic attacks. These methods involve desensitizing triggers, reducing physical and emotional symptoms, and challenging irrational thought patterns to empower individuals to recognize, control, and reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks.

Is panic attack disorder therapy conducted in person or online?

Panic attack disorder therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and through Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does panic attack disorder therapy last?

Panic attack disorder therapy may last for a variable amount of time, depending on the individual’s unique needs.

Finding Relief Through Panic Disorder Therapy: Understanding the Process

Panic disorder therapy is a structured and evidence-based approach designed to help individuals manage and overcome the debilitating symptoms of panic disorder. At its core, panic disorder therapy aims to empower individuals to regain control over their lives and experience relief from the intense fear and anxiety associated with panic attacks.

Understanding Panic Disorder Therapy

Panic disorder therapy typically involves a combination of therapeutic techniques and strategies tailored to the unique needs of each individual. These may include:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT is a widely recognized and effective approach for treating panic disorder. It focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and beliefs that contribute to panic attacks, as well as teaching coping skills to manage anxiety symptoms.
  • Exposure therapy: Exposure therapy involves gradually exposing individuals to feared situations or triggers in a controlled and supportive environment. Over time, exposure helps individuals desensitize to their fears and build confidence in their ability to cope with panic symptoms.
  • Relaxation techniques: Relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and mindfulness meditation can help individuals manage acute anxiety symptoms and reduce the frequency and severity of panic attacks.

I was so nervous about going to therapy being that I’ve never foresaw a reason or need to go… I had encountered a very traumatic accident at work and it left me confused and depressed about my career path! I can honestly say if it weren’t for Ariane I’d still be left battling confusion and and depression from my accident. I’ve suffered anxiety and panic attacks from the incident but Ari has given me helpful tips to get through my tough times when I’m experiencing those attacks. I’m just so grateful to have encountered a very experienced and understanding counselor who genuinely has my best interest at a full recovery at heart!

This was my first therapy experience. I was in desperate need for help. Jenee was my therapist for a year and I can’t overstate how incredibly helpful she has been. She met me where I was mentally and helped me to find myself and healthy/productive ways of dealing with my everyday struggles. I’m a completely different and happier person thanks to her hard work.
