Anxiety and tools to control it
Anxiety disorders include fears and phobias, social anxiety, general anxiety disorder, panic attacks, and constant worrying about health. Treatment can involve skill-building so that the client is prepared to succeed in the feared situation; gradual desensitization at the pace that is right for the client; finding and removing false beliefs that underpin the anxiety; relaxation training; dealing with past trauma; and improving or ending relationships that reinforce lack of confidence or feeling out of control.
