Psychotherapy for anxiety: effective techniques that work

Ancient tree with numerous roots

The importance of seeking professional help for anxiety

In our society, which is deified by postmodern individualism, recognizing that we are people with difficulties and that we need the support of others to be better with ourselves is an act of courage. Basically, because it involves looking in the mirror and question that identity that has given us (and taken away) so much throughout our lives. In Sincronia Yoga We advise you to leave behind the prejudices imposed by society and if at any time you suffer from this, do not hesitate to seek the help of a psychotherapy professional to treat your anxiety.

Self-recognition: the first step toward emotional healing

How the environment influences our anxiety

Our ability to be ourselves is constantly influenced by our genetics and epigenetics. All of interaction between our personality and the environment (familiar, pedagogical, social, economic and cultural) drives us to find some paths of operation that are always adaptive to keep us in the greatest safety zone and calm about what happens to us and how we manage that with the reaction and expectations of the environmentIf we've always been told that the best coffee is on the right path, why would we explore the left path? Well, sometimes we do it simply to differentiate ourselves, to find self-recognition and value outside of what we've been conditioned to.

A reaction almost by denial rather than by choice. Therefore, an essential point is to understand that there are times in our lives when familiar paths lose their power and may lead us to go to a psychologist to treat anxiety.

Psychotherapy treatments for anxiety

Returning to the title of the article, the ideal psychotherapy treatment for anxiety for each person goes beyond a recipe for behavioral techniques. In it dendros graduate They emphasize how the symptom—namely, the anxiety we suffer from stress, a conflict with a partner, or a personal or professional crisis—is the tip of the iceberg. This block of ice rests on invisible depths, imperceptible to our consciousness, and which, therefore, dismantles cognitive control as a unique tool for self-regulation.

Beyond behavioral techniques: looking under the iceberg

In Sincronia Yoga We have a trajectory of more than 10 years of experience in the field of Yoga and manual therapies that confirms how the integration with the psycho-corporal practice is functional for the management of this stress. Not only because it helps us manage it better through asanas, breathing or meditation, but also because it goes to a core of flexibility in our body that affects our mind.

Thus, this unknown path is better handled, it becomes a discovery that improves our neural plasticity and that favors us opening up to a broader and more up-to-date experience with the coordinates of our present.

Ignasi Seró, expert in psychotherapy in collaboration with Sincronia Yoga

At Sincronia Yoga you can find this service of accompaniment in the Psychotherapy sessions directed to treat anxiety that we offer by the hand of Ignasi SeroThe foundation will be to understand what we need to feel better and build from where we come from (genogram), who we are (self-characterization), and what has happened to us (lifeline) a map that offers meaning and significance to our anxiety problems.

Because just as important, or even more so, than the technique or discipline that helps us live with it is the ability to accept that we need help, that we are interdependent and social beings.

A humane and integrative approach to treating anxiety

Once we can connect with the essential communicative nature of human beings, the ability to analyze what has led us to psychotherapy sessions will transform from a "problem" into an act of self-care; with what happens to us and how we discover new paths to finding the best coffee of the day in our life learning. It turns out that the path was the one on the right, but what I really like and what makes me happy is... a cup of tea.
