Maryellen Newman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Treating anxiety in therapy involves an individualized approach designed to alleviate symptoms and enhance overall well-being. Clinicians often utilize evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and reframe distorted thought patterns contributing to anxiety. Through psychoeducation, clients gain a deeper understanding of their triggers and learn practical coping strategies, including mindfulness and relaxation techniques, to manage worry thoughts and uncomfortable physical sensations. Exposure therapy may also be employed to gradually confront and desensitize individuals to anxiety provoking situations. Therapeutic exploration often delves into the root causes of anxiety, addressing underlying concerns and fostering resilience. Collaborative goal-setting enables clients to work towards realistic milestones, promoting a sense of control and empowerment. Ultimately, therapy for anxiety seeks to provide individuals with the tools to navigate uncertainty, reduce avoidance behaviors, and cultivate a more adaptive approach to life's challenges.
