View Dwight Newell's profile

What is your go-to approach for anxiety therapy?

My go-to approach for treating anxiety is relaxation. I find the best benefit in teaching relaxation because most clients describe that using it changes their perception of their anxiety. They find that it works 'almost as well' as a medication to help them manage their symptoms on a consistent basis.

What tools do you teach in anxiety therapy?

I teach the following tools in anxiety therapy: relaxation (techniques which include systematic muscle relaxation), breathing techniques (Box breathing is the tool I most often use), systematic desensitization (gradual exposure to something that triggers anxiety)

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in anxiety therapy?

I know when a client is making meaningful progress in anxiety therapy when they begin to identify their physical symptoms earlier after their anxiety is triggered.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement anxiety therapy?

Client can supplement their time in anxiety therapy with exercise.

What should someone do to prepare for starting anxiety therapy?

Client can supplement their time in anxiety therapy with practicing relaxation and breathing techniques that have been discussed during sessions.

Starting Anxiety therapy in Odessa

What is anxiety therapy?

Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Odessa, TX can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day anxiety or your anxiety disorder.

How does anxiety therapy work?

Anxiety therapy involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Thriveworks Odessa therapists will then work with you to determine where your anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.

How to deal with anxiety?

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.

Symptoms of anxiety

Common symptoms of anxiety include:

  • Sense of impending danger
  • Nervousness/restlessness
  • Trouble focusing
  • Excessive sweating
  • Shaking
  • Headaches
  • Stomach issues
  • Fatigue
  • Panic attacks
  • Increased heart rate

What is the best therapy for anxiety?

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.

Is anxiety therapy conducted in person or online?

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.

How long does anxiety therapy last?

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.

Is therapy worth it for anxiety?

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.

How Does Therapy Help with Anxiety?

Anxiety treatment at Thriveworks in Odessa, TX helps to manage and prevent anxiety by using well-researched, proven strategies like cognitive therapy and psychiatric medication like antidepressants. Mental health providers at Thriveworks may use one or a combination of the following effective approaches:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps to modify maladaptive thoughts and beliefs that can lead to anxiety and panic attacks
  • Psychotherapy (talk therapy), which works on an interpersonal level to delve deeper into the triggers for anxiety, among other things
  • Exposure therapy, which uses desensitization in a secure environment to treat phobias
  • Psychiatric medication prescribed by a licensed Thriveworks psychiatrist, which treats underlying neurochemical issues
  • Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR), which uses bilateral movement to ease anxiety
  • Lifestyle modifications; for example, cutting back on caffeine and increasing exercise
  • Holistic treatments like meditation and deep breathing, which can relax the body and hence relax the mind
  • Biofeedback, which focuses on small neurological changes that can make a big emotional difference
  • Progressive muscle relaxation
  • Depression therapy (if someone has simultaneous depression)
  • Creative therapies like art, music, and journaling
  • Family therapy or couples counseling
  • Solution-focused coping strategies

Is There a Way to Overcome Panic Attacks?

To overcome panic attacks for good, a person must ultimately overcome the underlying anxiety that leads to panic attacks. The anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Odessa, TX can give people the psychological resources they need to nip panic attacks in the bud. When you’re having a panic attack, you may feel like you can’t breathe. You may experience hyperventilation, a racing heart, dizziness, or nausea. You may think you need to go to the emergency room because panic attacks can mimic the symptoms of a heart attack. 

Remember that during a panic attack, your brain and your body are in a destructive feedback loop. Your racing heart signals to your brain that something is very wrong, which signals to your heart that it should beat faster, and back and forth, exacerbating your symptoms. So calming either your mind or your body can have a compound effect. 

If you’re in the middle of a panic attack, there are some practical tactics you can try to soothe yourself:

  • Regulate your breathing. Slowing down and deepening your breathing sends a physiological signal to your brain that you’re going to be okay.
  • Focus on something during the panic attack, like an image or an object.
  • Repeat a mantra like “You are safe.” or “This will pass.”
  • Focus on your physical senses as opposed to your thoughts. What do you smell? What do you hear? This can gently tether you to your surroundings when you’re feeling overwhelmed.
