Recognizing Different Types and Causes of Anxiety

Anxiety comes in many forms and can cause many physical and psychological symptoms. While the symptoms of anxiety can look very different from one person to the next, there are some commonalities in the way specific conditions manifest and how they develop.

Most anxiety disorders are caused by a combination of several biological and environmental factors. Anxiety may be linked to certain medical issues, substance abuse, or some medications. Genetics, stress, trauma, and certain personality traits also contribute to anxiety disorders.

While there are a great number of anxiety disorders recognized worldwide, some of the most common forms of anxiety include the following:

  • Generalized anxiety disorder
  • Perinatal or postpartum anxiety
  • Specific phobias
  • Social anxiety disorder
  • Separation anxiety
  • Panic disorder

For some people, anxiety is a lifelong struggle. But treating anxiety is possible, and most anxiety disorders can be effectively managed with some support from a professional. If you’re ready to leave your anxiety behind, a licensed therapist or counselor is ready to help at Thriveworks Counseling in Kailua, HI.

What Does Anxiety Therapy Involve?

Therapy for anxiety can help you understand your mental health, learn how to reduce anxiety symptoms, and manage your condition over a long-term basis. You can even learn how to prevent the future onset of anxiety through various therapeutic methods.

Anxiety counseling is a multifaceted approach that is highly specific to each individual client. A licensed therapist or counselor will create a treatment plan for you that is unique and addresses the concerns and issues you’re facing.

Anxiety treatment plans are composed of several therapies, and will likely include one or more forms of talk therapy. During therapy sessions, a mental health professional will walk you through understanding your anxiety, pinpointing potential causes and triggers, and implementing techniques that will reduce your stress and keep it from interfering with your life.

There are several types of talk therapy that are effective in treating depression, including the following:

  • Behavioral therapy
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Psychodynamic therapy
  • Humanistic therapy
  • Interpersonal therapy
  • Exposure therapy

Your anxiety treatment plan might also include the addition of prescription medications. Anti-anxiety medications and certain antidepressants can help control anxiety symptoms and manage anxiety disorders. Stress-reduction techniques such as meditation can also be used at home to control anxiousness, while lifestyle changes like avoiding caffeine and getting more exercise are simple ways to help prevent anxiety symptoms from returning.

If you want to manage the anxiety that’s keeping you from living your best life, consider working with an experienced, compassionate therapist from Thriveworks Counseling in Kailua, HI. Schedule your first appointment through our online portal or by calling our office today.
