My go-to approach for treating anxiety is mindfulness and meditation. I find the best benefit in grounding techniques and breath work because these methods allow the client to take charge of their mental health symptoms and feel more in control.
In anxiety therapy, I teach the following tools:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in anxiety therapy when they report shorter incidents of panic and worry and successful use of coping mechanisms.
Clients can supplement their time in anxiety therapy by practicing mindfulness and meditation techniques at home.
To prepare for your first anxiety therapy session, you can think about the situations and triggers that make you most anxious and what your life might look like if you had more control.
Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Baltimore, MD 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 Baltimore 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.
Many people who deal with anxiety do everything they can to avoid situations that trigger it. This makes sense—in fact, it’s exactly the advice the brain is giving—but exploring these feelings and urges in a safe space is one of the only ways to actually address the problem and potentially say goodbye to anxiety for good. Thriveworks Baltimore Counseling can help you accomplish this mission in anxiety therapy.
If you’re struggling with anxiety, consider scheduling an anxiety therapy appointment at Thriveworks Baltimore Counseling. We can set you up with an anxiety therapist with the right knowledge, skillset, and experience to help you.
Some clients don’t need any help discovering where their anxiety stems from. They may have lived a relatively anxiety-free existence until a particularly traumatizing event took place. It could be a physical or sexual assault, the death of a loved one or something else entirely. If you already know where your anxiety comes from then you can discuss options with your counselor to address the cause. Your anxiety therapist can work with you to find the right way through it.
Now, if you don’t know where your anxiety stems from, an anxiety therapist can still help you. When you go to anxiety therapy at Thriveworks Baltimore Counseling, your therapist can help you to dig into your past and other potential contributing factors. In some cases, the treatment is the same no matter what the cause. Regardless of your current situation, you can count on your counselor to take your needs and concerns into consideration.
