Disordered: Anxiety Help What Does Anxiety Therapy Look Like? (Episode 45)
"What does anxiety therapy look like?"
"What goes on in a session with an anxiety specialist?"
"How can I find the right therapist for me?"
This week Drew and Josh address these questions, including a really interesting 12-minute mock therapy session to start the episode. Josh plays the therapist while Drew is the client struggling with panic and extreme levels of anxiety. It's role play, but it does give a reasonable idea of what a first session with an anxiety specialist might look and sound like.
The guys also talk about different modalities in therapy (treatment styles or methods), the value of being able to bring different therapy concepts to bear on different problems, and the need to have at least some level of connection and relationship with a therapist to get the most from the endeavor.
