Evidence-based tools
- EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is backed by research as a highly effective approach for reducing anxiety, particularly when it stems from traumatic experiences.
- CBT: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on breaking the cycle of worry by identifying and challenging irrational thoughts, managing stress, and developing practical skills to handle anxiety-provoking situations.
- ACT: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes accepting anxious feelings without judgment, using mindfulness to stay present, and committing to actions that align with your values despite anxiety
- ERP: Exposure and Response Prevention is particularly effective for treating anxiety disorders like OCD and specific phobias by gradually reducing avoidance behaviors..
Global benefits of therapy
- Enhanced understanding: Gain insight into the root causes of your anxiety and ways you may be fueling the anxiety without knowing it.
- Increased your capacity: In anxiety work, one of our primary tasks is learning to hold space for the experience of anxiety. This is easier to do when you have a supportive person holding it with you! Through making space for anxiety, we learn to be less scared of it, which give more power back to you.
