Anxiety is a relatively common mental health concern that people may experience at various points. Certain life events, such as a new job, relationship, death, or birth can trigger a bout of anxiety. Other people have an anxiety disorder that clouds much of their day-to-day life. Counseling interventions for anxiety range depending on its severity.
Available Treatment Options
One of the most common approaches to therapy for anxiety is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), where therapists assist people in identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing coping mechanisms that promote healthier behaviors. Other approaches include Exposure Therapy, where a person and their therapist work toward decreasing the anxiety surrounding a specific situation or thing by slowly exposing them to it. Mindfulness and relaxation interventions also are helpful for anxiety.
