Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Bend, OR 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 Bend 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.
Fear is our body’s way of protecting us from perceived danger. It’s our first defense against bad decisions and precarious situations. But people with anxiety often feel fear in even normal, everyday activities. This can include the fear of public speaking, crowded spaces, and conflict with loved ones.
Fear is a normal part of everyday life. But if your fear prevents you from trying new things or makes you afraid to let loved ones out of your sight, it may be time to seek therapy for your anxiety. To begin, contact us at Thriveworks in Bend, OR. We’ll work together to help reduce your anxiety.
Although we often use the word anxiety when discussing long-lasting feelings of anxiousness, there are actually many different types of anxiety disorders. Some of the more common types and causes are listed below.
Dealing with our fears can be challenging but therapy can help alleviate your anxiety symptoms so that you can focus on the things and people that matter most to you.
When anxiety gets in the way of our dreams, normal growth processes, and our everyday life, it may be time to seek the help of a mental health professional.
Therapy can help alleviate your anxiety symptoms and provide order to your life. Your Thriveworks therapist, psychologist, or another provider will use a variety of tools to reduce your anxiety and help you make meaningful decisions based on your goals rather than on your fears.
To get to this step, your therapist may employ different therapeutic techniques such as:
People with anxiety are often hesitant to pursue professional help because they believe they ought to be able to address their issues alone. But no one ever truly does anything alone. We depend on one another to help us meet goals, fight illnesses, and live our lives to their fullest potential.
Reaching out for anxiety counseling is no different. We’re committed to offering you convenient care at Thriveworks. Our therapists, counselors, and other professionals are available online via video, and we offer weekend and evening sessions. If you’re a new client, we may even be able to see you this very week.
