My go-to approach for treating anxiety is CBT and psychoeducation. I believe that clients are the experts on their situation but benefit from learning functional tools to better manage anxiety. Using a logical approach to emotional reactions can help slow down the physical response and create a sense of control and mastery over the emotional response, leading to more confidence and less avoidance of anxiety-producing triggers.
I teach the following skills and tools when working with anxiety: “thoughts on trial,” grounding techniques, and working to improve the ability to reduce physical arousal so the client feels less anxious.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in managing their anxiety when they are experiencing less anxiety daily and feel more confident in managing the anxiety when it does appear.
In the time away from therapy, a client can work on being mindful, exercising, and focusing on getting enough sleep so they feel as good as possible.
A client can get the most out of their first session by reflecting on what they want to accomplish, thinking of what they want to discuss, and coming prepared to talk about these wants and needs. It is also important to be in a place where you feel comfortable and at ease and have the privacy to speak freely.
Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Sterling Heights, MI 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 Sterling Heights 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.
