How do you work with clients with anxiety?

Many of my clients have struggled with anxiety and panic. Its important to identify what your symptoms are, why, and when you are having them. We work on identifying when they have happened in the past as well to explore triggers. Understanding the connection of your thoughts to your physical reaction is important. We can work to reframe your thoughts, as well as ways to relax your body when triggered. Making the most of your awareness of your present sense of self through grounding techniques is also helpful.

Hello, thank you for reading my profile. I am a Licensed clinical social worker and grief counselor in the NY area. I offer counseling through a virtual platform or in office. My focus is usually with people who struggle with grief and loss, anxiety, depression, post traumatic stress, caregiver support and/or general life stressors. I accept different forms of insurance, private pay, or out of network. I look forward to speaking with you.

When working with clients who have anxiety, I focus on building trust and creating a supportive environment. I use psychoeducation to help clients understand anxiety, employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge negative thoughts, and teach mindfulness and relaxation techniques for managing symptoms. Gradual exposure therapy may be used to reduce avoidance, and we set achievable goals together to promote progress. Ongoing support and encouragement help clients gain confidence and effectively manage their anxiety.

Welcome! I’m Ada Ojobo, and I’m thrilled to meet you! As a Board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over six years of dedicated experience in mental health, I have had the honor of providing compassionate care to patients from all walks of life. I am deeply committed to delivering excellent care, working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, addressing their unique mental health needs with kindness, professionalism, and understanding.

When working with clients who experience anxiety, I take a personalized and holistic approach, understanding that each individual's experience with anxiety is unique. My first step is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings without judgment. From there, I collaborate with them to identify the specific triggers or situations contributing to their anxiety. In terms of treatment, I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This technique allows them to challenge and reframe negative thought patterns that may be driving their anxiety. Mindfulness-based practices are also helpful, teaching clients how to stay grounded in the present moment and manage their anxious thoughts more effectively. For some clients, anxiety may stem from underlying trauma, in which case I might incorporate trauma-focused therapy to address those root causes. Additionally, I use strength-based and person-focused approaches, empowering clients to recognize their resilience and strengths. Depending on the client's needs, I might also introduce relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, and lifestyle modifications to improve overall mental and physical well-being.

My experience with clients struggling with anxiety and panic is great.  I start by focusing on the client and learning about their triggers.  Triggers usually precede anxiety and panic.  Next, we deal with the triggers themselves - how to recognize and deal with them.  Eventually, once the causes or triggers are minimalized, the anxiety and panic also decrease.

First of all who doesn't have at least some anxiety? My biggest thing is normalizing these fears or concerns for people. No one wants to feel unique or alone in their journey. Anxiety is common, and can be really scary because it feels so so real! I use a lot of CBT to challenge "what iffing" thinking. I also just listen and allow clients the space to talk about their fears and get them out of their head.
