FAQs About Anxiety Treatment in Maryland

 

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is very effective for anxiety reduction, through understanding how our thoughts influence our feelings and behaviors, and how to correct the them they have gone off course. I find CBT especially helpful when also paired with learning and practicing skills for settling the nervous system and body as well. This provides a well-rounded approach for managing anxiety in the mind and the body.

  • Along with frequent worrying and/or irritability, folks with anxiety disorders can also have a hard time concentrating or settling down due to restlessness or hypervigilance. Physical symptoms can include sweating, nausea, muscle tension, frequent headaches, trembling and palpitations. Anxiety is a normal response to some stressors in life, like a big presentation or interview, but an anxiety disorder may be indicated if these issues are out of proportion to the events at hand, or are causing disturbances in your everyday functioning.

  • Anxiety is often treated with a combination of therapy, lifestyle changes and medication. Medication can be prescribed by a physician or psychiatrist. A therapist can help you learn skills to manage your anxiety better and make lifestyle changes to support your wellbeing.
