Treating Anxiety with Therapy in Champaign, IL

The good news for those suffering from some manner of anxiety is that these disorders are highly treatable. Mental health providers are always pioneering innovative ways to treat both the symptoms and the psychological origins of anxiety. These specialized therapists may use the following types of treatment:

• Art and music therapy, a creative and nonverbal way of addressing symptoms of anxiety
• Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR), a technique that can help clients reprocess their trauma in a healthier way through bilateral movement
• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on modifying your potentially maladaptive thought patterns such as “black and white” thinking
• Exposure therapy, where your therapist gradually introduces you to objects or situations that cause anxiety (“systematic desensitization”) within the supportive environment of therapy
• Psychotherapy, where you and your therapist examine and treat your anxiety through a dynamic process of talking, listening, and offering feedback
