How Does Anxiety Counseling Work?

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.
