What should I expect from anxiety treatment in Summit County, CO?
Many evidence-based interventions offer effective anxiety treatment. Your anxiety therapist may help you identify distorted and negative ways of thinking by using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). CBT can help you develop a healthy mindset about yourself and the world around you. Your anxiety therapist might also help you work through trauma by using Eye Movement Reprocessing and Desensitization (EMDR).
If you experience symptoms of OCD, your anxiety therapist can help you face your fears. Together, you can work quiet your mind through the use of Exposure and Response Therapy (ERP). Or, you may need help with something like grounding. Your anxiety therapist can help you stay calm and walk you through mindfulness and meditation exercises. (Anxiety therapists love acronyms!)
Our therapists tailor every session to the individual needs of our clients. In anxiety treatment, you will work to identify areas where you need the most help. Anxiety treatment is not a one size fits all experience. We will meet you where you are to build a treatment plan that serves your unique needs.
But isn't my stress warranted?
Isn't the world a scary place to live?
The world is experiencing an incredible amount of stress, uncertainty, and change.
Therapy does not attempt to deny the difficulties that we have in life. Rather, our therapists can help you face the stress and uncertainty head-on. You can live with courage and hope.
We can help you develop coping skills and learn to trust yourself as you navigate an ever changing world.
