Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Waukesha, WI 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 Waukesha 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.
What comes to mind when you think of the word anxiety? For most of us, we might imagine the physical sensations that go along with it: a pounding heart, dry mouth, racing thoughts, and more. It’s normal to feel some anxiety every now and then. But occasional anxiousness is quite different from clinical anxiety— and considering that recent psychological research suggests up to 18% of Americans develop an anxiety disorder every year, we might be severely underestimating the extent and toll anxiety takes on our society.

Anxiety is a familiar sensation for most, but it’s important to consider how often you are feeling anxious.

These are some, but not all of the symptoms that an anxiety disorder might manifest as. Because anxiety disorders are a powerful disruptor to one’s daily life and happiness, those with a diagnosable anxiety disorder are often paired with a psychiatrist.

However, as qualified medical doctors, psychiatrists also have the ability to prescribe medication for their clients to help them cope and adapt. Even if your situation doesn’t require medication, the mental health professionals with Thriveworks can help you form a customized treatment plan.
