Managing Anxiety with Dr. Tyler Maxson

Understanding Anxiety

Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety can be a challenging and isolating experience. Anxiety manifests in various forms, from constant worry and intrusive thoughts to physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath. It can affect your daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. If you're struggling with anxiety, it's important to know that you're not alone and that help is available.

Personalized Approach to Anxiety Treatment

At my practice, I offer a personalized approach to anxiety treatment, tailored to meet your unique needs. I utilize evidence-based methods such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based therapy, and positive psychology interventions. By viewing treatment through a holistic Biopsychosocial-Spiritual lens, I address the interconnected aspects of your mental, physical, and spiritual health.

Quick Tips for Immediate Relief

Here are a few quick tips you can try to manage your anxiety:

1. 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique: Look around and name 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. This helps bring your focus back to the present moment.
2. Deep Breathing: Inhale deeply for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, and exhale for 4 seconds. Repeat this a few times to calm your nervous system.
3. Positive Self-Talk: Replace negative thoughts with positive affirmations like "I am safe," "I can handle this," and "These feelings will pass."
