What is the most effective treatment for anxiety?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is widely considered the most effective treatment for anxiety. This evidence-based therapy helps individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns, while also teaching coping strategies to reduce anxiety. CBT focuses on practical skills such as relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and gradual exposure to feared situations, all of which help reduce anxiety over time.
What happens in anxiety therapy?
In anxiety therapy, clients typically work with a therapist to identify triggers and develop coping mechanisms to manage anxiety. CBT sessions may involve learning new ways to reframe negative thoughts, engaging in exposure exercises, and practising relaxation techniques. Clients are encouraged to apply these skills in real-life situations, gradually increasing their confidence and reducing anxiety.
What issues does anxiety treatment address?
Anxiety therapy focuses on alleviating symptoms of general anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, and other related disorders. It helps individuals address excessive worry, fear, and physical symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heart rate or shortness of breath. Therapy aims to reduce avoidance behaviours and equip clients with strategies to handle anxiety in daily life.
What is the goal of anxiety therapy?
