What Makes a Treatment
Effective?
Effective treatment options help anxiety sufferers to successfully address
each of the three
components of an anxiety disorder:
Several Treatment Methods Used to Treat
Anxiety Disorders
Psychotherapy
Two of the most effective forms of psychotherapy used to
treat anxiety disorders are behavioral therapy and cognitive-behavioral
therapy.
Behavioral Therapy
Behavioral therapy helps you to unlearn self-defeating patterns
and habits in your day to day actions. It teaches you new,
healthy skills and ways of reacting to situations that trigger
anxiety.
Behavioral strategies may include progressive muscle relaxation
techniques, gradual exposure to the anxiety trigger, changing breathing
patterns, positive and negative reinforcement, and learning empowering
ways of relating to others.
Cognitive Therapy
Cognitive therapy assumes that by changing self-defeating thought patterns
and transforming them into more successful belief systems you can improve
your mental and emotional health. Cognitive therapy teaches you to change
emotions and behavior by changing our self-defeating thoughts such as all
or nothing beliefs, negative assumptions, labeling, and so on.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive-behavioral therapy, or CBT, is a combination
approach that uses both cognitive therapy and behavioral
therapy. Cognitive
and behavioral therapies compliment
each other. When used together, they stimulate areas of
growth that are difficult to achieve using one or the other
by itself. Cognitive-behavioral therapy addresses both the
thoughts and behaviors that promote and perpetuate
anxiety.
Medication
Medication can be a helpful tool in reducing anxiety. It can help reduce physical symptoms and get the body on a more
even keel, particularly when anxiety is so debilitating that it is
difficult to function. However, medication is not a cure-all. It does not address
several root causes of
anxiety such as an anxiety-promoting lifestyle, anxious thought patterns,
and anxious behaviors. Medications are often used in combination with
other treatment options such as cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Alternative Approaches
Alternative therapies use natural supplements, nutritional approaches,
biofeedback, and other natural, holistic approaches to aid healing. These
approaches focus on the body and mind’s own innate mechanisms of
healing. They
are often used in combination with other treatment methods.
Lifestyle Strategies to Reduce Stress
This approach incorporates proper sleep, exercise, and
stress-reduction techniques as a tool for reducing anxiety.
It is often used in combination with other treatment methods.
What Is an Eclectic Approach?
An eclectic approach is a combination approach that uses elements of
several treatment options to create the most effective and successful
treatment plan for you.
