How Can Therapy Help with Anxiety?

Feelings of restlessness, dread, and tension are a part of life. But when you become unable to resolve those feelings or find that they are coupled with profound physical symptoms, it’s time to speak with a professional counselor about your anxiety.

Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health diagnoses in the United States. In fact, 30% of adults will experience clinical anxiety at some point in their lives. But while anxiety disorders are fairly prevalent, they are also treatable. You don’t have to continue living with the overwhelming symptoms of this disorder.

Here at Neal Psychological Specialties, we approach anxiety by redirecting those overwhelming feelings through cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness strategies aimed to reduce anxiety. Learning to interrupt and divert anxious thoughts takes practice—and our team is here to teach you the tools needed for success. Our goal is to always start first with non-medication strategies to deal with anxiety.
