Anxiety is Treatable. 

Anxiety disorders are common in both adults and children. About 18% of U.S. adults and 25% of adolescents age 13 to 18 will experience anxiety, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.

About 4% of adults, and nearly 6% of teens, have anxiety disorders classified as severe.⠀

Luckily, anxiety disorders are very treatable. Most patients who suffer from anxiety are able to reduce or eliminate symptoms after several (or fewer) months of psychotherapy, and many patients notice improvement after just a few sessions.⠀

Our Approach To Treating Anxiety. 

When you choose to become a client at Rise Up®, you will be heard. You will create your path forward with our team teaching skills, promoting strengths use and encouraging you along the way. The journey of counseling is yours, and providers will facilitate the strengthening of your own voice as guidance to pursue your unique path.

Our clients come to us feeling anxious and overwhelmed with thoughts focused on worst case scenario “what ifs” keeping them up at night. Stress has taken a toll on the body, including intense digestive and cardiac experiences. Self-doubt and judgments dominate. Avoiding in order to accommodate anxiety has impacted lifestyle, often limiting trying new things, decision making, meeting new people and living the best life possible.

Does this sound familiar? If so, contact Rise Up® to begin rising up above the grip anxiety has. You can expect to gain from counseling a sense of self and confidence in your ability to manage symptoms and stressors. Our clients learn skills that allow them to increase self-advocacy, participation in social situations and improved decision making strategies.

Rewire Your Mind

One of the most important pieces of information that we talk about is this: Anxiety is Treatable. ⠀

Therapy can help rewire an anxious brain. The brain is constantly rebuilding itself in response to experience throughout life. Genes in the brain are triggered, new proteins are created, new neural pathways are formed, and they transfer the new information to multiple brain regions every time you see, hear, smell, or touch something, learn a new fact, or have a new experience. ⠀

It is possible to activate and target the brain's rewiring, and psychotherapy achieves just that—think of psychotherapy as a highly concentrated educational experience. Cognitive behavioral therapy—the first-line treatment for most forms of anxiety and depression—alters the structure and function of the brain in the long run, according to brain imaging research.⠀
