Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety disorders are among the most diagnosed disorders. It can include generalized anxiety, panic disorder, specific phobias as well as OCD, among others. Obsessive compulsive disorder consists of obsessions and rituals (or compulsions). Concerns can range from contamination fears to fears of harming others. Anxiety is a normal everyday experience, but it can become a problem when our life becomes centered around avoiding the feeling and experience of anxiety.

Many therapists will focus on helping you learn to relax, but, this can backfire. While relaxing is an important skill, the most successful treatment of anxiety involves turning towards the feelings, not away from it. Exposure and response prevention is a well-researched and evidence-based treatment for most anxiety disorders. It involves learning about your specific concerns and fears and then developing a step-by-step program to face your fears, with the support of your therapist.
