Anxiety
Anxiety can be crippling for people that can include difficult and recurring thoughts and physically symptoms. The response to the anxiety is usually a perceived threat-based reaction that may result in beliefs of not coping or not being in control which can trigger a stress response in our body. This may result in unhelpful behaviours to try and escape from the discomfort of the stress and unfortunately this is just the start of the cycle of anxiety. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is the most widely used therapy for anxiety disorders. Research has shown it to be highly effective in the treatment of panic disorder, phobias, social anxiety, performance anxiety, healthy anxiety, OCD, PTSD, Trauma, Stress, and generalized anxiety disorder, amongst many other conditions.
