How do you work with clients with anxiety?
I employ a holistic approach aimed at reducing symptoms and enhancing coping mechanisms. I utilize techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), such as cognitive restructuring and exposure therapy, to challenge negative thought patterns and gradually confront fears. Relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and stress management strategies are also integrated into therapy sessions. Depending on the severity of symptoms, medication management may be considered in conjunction with therapy to provide additional support.
