Experienced Anxiety Treatment in Illinois

When we say “anxiety,” the first thought that probably comes to mind is just the emotional element. However, Anxiety may be complex, and it’s not just a mental endeavor. Anxiety may have some severe effects on the body, spirit, and personal space, causing real panic, heightened fear, dread, and inability to participate in the activities of daily life entirely.

Anxiety isn’t just a dimension of the mind; it can also affect the body and senses in diverse ways. Anxiety has altered your mind, body, and the way you see things. Here are some of the ways that anxiety can demonstrate or reveal itself:

  • Mental (Auditory): Constant negative self-talk, stress-filled internal dialogues, and worry-filled thoughts.
  • Visible: A sense of feeling stuck, unable to envision the next step or an overwhelming feeling that nothing is right.
  • Physical: Anxiety can take a toll on the body, leading to physical symptoms like stiff shoulders, an aching stomach, arm pain, headaches, or even feeling frozen in place.

At Fields for Growth Therapy, we realize that anxiety can be incredibly stressful, but with proper treatment, it may be beaten. Your personalized anxiety treatment plan uses a combination of therapies to help you process your anxiety and get back to a more static state of calmness.

Our Unique and Proven Approach to Anxiety Treatment

At the Fields for Growth Therapy, we concentrate on helping people talk about their awareness of themselves more effectively in speaking and nonverbally interacting with others as the primary means of recovery. The anxiety habit, for example, involves holding tension in the body and mind. Thus, our anxiety treatment methods teach you to process and let go of the stress.

  • Verbal Processing: By discussing the thoughts that are causing distress, we help you identify patterns and work through them.
  • Physical Awareness: Talking about the physical places in your body where you hold tension allows you to release some of that discomfort.
  • Envisioning Change: We encourage clients to focus on what even a small sign of change would look like and set a goal to move forward.

Anxiety Treatment Options with Fields for Growth Anxiety Therapy

At Fields for Growth Therapy, we provide many anxiety treatment opportunities to aid in the reduction of anxiety among clients. Certain modalities may include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This approach helps clients address negative thought patterns such as “I should,” “I must,” and “I ought to.” These thoughts can create a cycle of anxiety that keeps you feeling stuck.
  • Journaling for Reflection: Writing about your experiences can help you clarify the next steps you need to take to move past anxiety.
  • Somatic Awareness: Identifying where you hold physical tension can be a powerful tool for reducing anxiety. You begin to take control of your body’s responses by tuning into these sensations.

Fields for Growth Therapy for anxiety also works to help clients develop healthier boundaries and stronger relationships. This may open the door to other strength-based ways of thinking, such as:

  • Identifying Past Successes: We help you build confidence by revisiting the times in your life when you’ve successfully navigated challenges.
  • Planning for the Future: Through self-reflection, we help you develop a plan that honors your past and present strengths while creating a path forward.
  • Holistic Approach: Our holistic view of treatment incorporates all aspects of your life—mental, physical, and emotional—to help you heal from anxiety.
