Anxiety and its impact

Indeed, anxiety can be a daunting adversary, but with Minds Online, individuals are equipped with the tools and support to face it. Our online therapy for anxiety program is designed to empower you, helping you understand your condition and providing strategies to manage and overcome it.
What type of therapy is best for anxiety?
Selecting the right platform for mental health support is crucial. Minds Online stands out not just for the collaborative, evidence-based, and tailor-made services that we offer but also for our dedicated team of experts.
We believe that the strength of any psychology and counselling practice lies in its team members, and we’re proud to have a diverse team comprising Clinical and Registered Psychologists and Medicare-Registered Occupational Therapists from all over Australia. Each member brings a wealth of personal and professional experiences, ensuring a holistic approach to mental health care. Some of our therapies include the following:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
A key foundation in CBT therapy stems from the belief by experts that some psychological conditions like anxiety and depression are influenced by learned behaviour and thinking patterns. This may be the best therapy for anxiety, depression or addiction. It’s composed of two main areas:
- Cognitive therapy helps you identify the thoughts that contribute to or lead to anxiety.
- Behaviour therapy to help you with your reaction to the thoughts that trigger or lead to anxiety
Relaxation Techniques
This is another anxiety treatment that includes techniques to help you relax your body and mind enough to allow you to face an anxiety-inducing situation.
Mindfulness Therapy
Mindfulness therapy is an approach that encourages individuals to focus on the present moment, observe their thoughts and feelings without judgment, and develop awareness and acceptance of their experiences. It draws from mindfulness meditation techniques and is often used to reduce stress, anxiety, depression, manage emotions, and improve overall mental well-being.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is a psychotherapeutic method that combines acceptance of one’s thoughts and feelings with a commitment to take positive actions in alignment with one’s values. ACT aims to help individuals develop psychological flexibility, overcome inner barriers, and live a meaningful life despite challenges or discomfort. It is used to address a variety of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, and chronic pain.
Exposure Therapy
Exposure helps individuals to confront feared situations or objects gradually to reduce anxiety and desensitize individuals to their phobias or traumatic experiences.
Types of Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety disorders manifest themselves in many ways affecting an individual’s ability to work, study, or relate with others in the right way. But the right treatment whether through medication, psychotherapy, or techniques like mindfulness, cognitive awareness, or coping skills, can help you overcome and live a normal life.
Panic Disorder
Panic disorder therapy is a treatment approach designed to help individuals who experience recurring panic attacks. It typically involves cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and medication treatment to manage and reduce the frequency of the attacks.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety therapy aims to assist individuals who have an intense fear of social situations. Treatment often includes exposure therapy and CBT to help individuals confront and manage their social fears.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy is tailored to individuals with intrusive, repetitive thoughts and compulsive behaviours. Treatment may consist of exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy and, in some cases, medication.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
PTSD therapy is used to help individuals who have experienced traumatic events and are struggling with the resulting symptoms. Therapeutic approaches like cognitive processing therapy (CPT) and CBT are commonly used.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Generalized anxiety disorder therapy is targeted at individuals with excessive worry and anxiety. It frequently involves CBT, relaxation techniques, and medication to manage and reduce chronic anxiety symptoms.
