How This Evidence-Based
Anxiety Treatment Program Works
How The Program Works
Adaptive Anxiety Therapy is specialized mental health therapy for anxiety. However, it is not traditional talk therapy. Rather, it is a structured and targeted mental health treatment program designed to teach advanced cognitive behavioral therapy skills for anxiety disorders/issues. Clients in this program work closely with anxiety specialist Dr. Shawn Nabors as they progress through the four stages of the program.
Sessions Every Other Week
Clients spend time in session twice a month working with Dr. Nabors to target thinking and behavioral responses when anxious that make it difficult for clients to adapt to their anxiety. Using behavioral psychology & cognitive therapy techniques, clients learn a structured protocol for responding to anxious moments which helps clients to become better adapted to anxiety symptoms and experience less anxiety distress when anxious.

Coaching Component
