Therapy For Anxiety and Depression

Often depression and an anxiety disorder can be treated similarly. In many cases, therapy can be tailored to an individual so that it works to reduce the symptoms of both disorders.

Treatments

As with any illness, treatment should be tailored to a specific diagnosis. A treatment plan for a diagnosis of depression and an anxiety disorder should be designed to help a person manage and reduce the symptoms of both disorders, often at the same time.

​

Some people may have a disorder that causes most of the distress, and it is reasonable to address it first. For example, if a person who is highly depressed is unable to begin treatment for an anxiety disorder, which requires high motivation and energy, it may be necessary to treat the depression first. Often, however it is difficult to tell which set of symptoms is predominant, so treatment of both may start at the same time.

Several forms of psychotherapy are effective. Of these, we specialize in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Dialectical (DBT), Mindfulness-Based (MBCT), and a combination of others. These treatments focus on taking specific steps to overcome anxiety and depression.
