Anxiety & depression counseling from our therapists at Thriveworks in Seattle, WA can help people better understand and manage their symptoms. If you are struggling with regular anxious and/or depressive thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety or depressive disorder, you should seek professional help. The therapists at Thriveworks can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your anxiety and/or depression.
Anxiety & depression counseling from our therapists in Seattle involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Your therapist will then work with you to determine where your anxiety and/or depression might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
Anxiety & depression counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Anxiety & depression counseling from Thriveworks Seattle therapists can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, dependent on the severity of one’s anxiety or depression as well as their needs and preferences.
Anxiety is not just the jitters. Depression is not just the blues. The longevity and severity of their symptoms distinguish them from the normal ups and downs of life that everyone experiences. Anxiety and depression are disruptive to people’s everyday lives and can be difficult to treat without the guidance of a licensed mental health professional.
Treatment for anxiety and depression may involve talk-based therapy such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), pharmacological treatment, or a combination of the two. It may also include suggestions to adjust your sleep routine and exercise habits, incorporate relaxation techniques, and meditation exercises. Just like other serious illnesses, treatment is supervised by a mental health professional who can make a proper diagnosis and devise a thorough and customized treatment plan.
When you are ready to meet with a licensed professional about your anxiety or depression, the therapists and counselors at Thriveworks in Seattle, WA are ready to meet with you. Our experienced staff has helped many clients and we look forward to doing the same for you.
People often talk about depression and anxiety together because they often occur in tandem. While they are separate illnesses, many who suffer from anxiety also suffer from depression, and vice versa.
Depression and anxiety also share another characteristic: They each come in a variety of forms and proper diagnosis is often key to effective treatment. Depression, for example, can manifest in different ways and at different times in an individual’s life. Some of the most common types of depressive disorders include:
Anxiety is similar to depression in that it manifests in many ways. A few types of anxiety disorders include:
