Benefits of Private Anxiety Counselling

Private anxiety counselling offers several potential benefits for individuals dealing with anxiety. Here’s an overview of what this type of counselling can provide:

  • Individualised Treatment: Private counselling allows for a tailored approach to address the unique aspects of a client’s anxiety. This contrasts with more generalised approaches and ensures the therapy aligns with the client’s specific needs and circumstances.
  • Expert Guidance and Support: Clients receive guidance from experienced therapists who can identify the causes of emotional and mental distress, and suggest solutions. Therapists can offer strategies for managing life’s complexities.
  • Safe and Confidential Environment: Counselling provides a safe space to discuss private matters. This can be helpful when discussing matters of an important and private nature.
  • Skill Development: Private anxiety counselling helps people learn to manage stress and improve their well-being. It also facilitates the development of emotional and empathic skills.
  • Personalised Coping Strategies: With the help of a therapist, you can explore and implement coping imagery to deal with negative emotions.
  • Addresses Underlying Issues: Unlike medication, which may only address symptoms, private anxiety counselling aims to tackle the root cause of anxiety.

Therapeutic Approaches Used in Private Anxiety Counselling:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps address thinking patterns and behaviours that exacerbate anxiety. It can also help you to challenge and gradually face your fears.
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT assists clients in accepting their anxiety and choosing valued directions in life, using mindfulness and other techniques. ACT is not aimed at getting rid of anxiety, but rather to empower you to do the things that you have avoided.
  • Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT): Combines Buddhist and behavioural approaches and emphasises awareness and mindfulness of emotions.

Summary: Private anxiety counselling offers individualised treatment from an experienced therapist. This creates a safe space to develop skills and strategies, like CBT, ACT and DBT to manage stress, address the underlying causes of anxiety and improve well-being.
