Is medication necessary? What can be cured by counselling?
Each person is different and so is the treatment required for anxiety disorder. A trained expert can know the level of anxiety you are experiencing. They can find out underlying causes and advice you about treatment or techniques to lower or manage your anxiety. Counselling follows structured problem solving methods and often involve relaxation techniques which is considered very effective in treating anxiety disorders. It may not always be possible for someone to relax or clear their mind of worries when they begin therapy. But, under a psychologist’s supervision, one can slowly develop this as the sessions progress.
