My go-to approach for therapy is to help someone examine his or her thoughts, feelings, and responses, as well as look at patterns of relationships in their lives. I believe this is helpful for understanding and for making positive changes.
The tools I help people in therapy develop include strengthening self-awareness, strengthening other awareness, deep breathing techniques, sensory techniques, journaling, and the 5-4-3-2-1 exercises for being aware of sights, sounds, thoughts, and feelings.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in therapy when the client shares positive changes in their thoughts, feelings, and responses to their stressors and also expresses improvement themselves.
Clients can supplement their time in therapy by utilizing the strategies they are learning in therapy, reading appropriate books, and leaning on their network of support.
To prepare for your first therapy session, you can be committed to showing up and willing to be honest in the session.
Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Rowlett, 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 Rowlett 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.
We offer in-person and online anxiety therapy at Thriveworks in Rowlett, TX — in which we focus on helping people with anxiety who are grappling with overwhelming fears and worries. Our anxiety therapists use evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to zero in on the thought patterns driving the anxiety. If you think you could benefit from anxiety therapy, reach out to Thriveworks Rowlett to get started.
Anxiety can manifest in a variety of ways, from physical to behavioral. Some people may only experience anxiety in the form of a distressing internal monologue, while others may withdraw from their loved ones in order to cope with their social anxiety disorder (which causes social anxiety in social situations). The expert anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Rowlett, TX will work to identify the type of anxiety you are experiencing, discuss risk factors and potential causes, and then also — importantly — help you better manage your symptoms.
The following list is of common symptoms of anxiety disorders, and includes both mental and physical symptoms:
