Making the Most Out of Anxiety Therapy in Philadelphia

Whether you’re still considering if you should attend therapy for your anxiety or you finally decided to take the plunge and schedule your appointment, you’re probably wondering how to make the most out of your therapy appointments. Dr. Gene Devers and Associates of Philly Family Life Counseling, LLC are here to help you make the most of your anxiety therapy in Philadelphia. 

Making the Most of Every Appointment

When it comes to managing anxiety, the road to healing isn’t always linear and automatic. But by giving therapy a try, you may open yourself to experience the many benefits of anxiety therapy. Here are a few things you should do to make the most out of every appointment:

• Always be honest – with your therapist and with yourself. Your therapist is there to help you, not judge you. Be honest about your feelings and your actions so your therapist can give you insights and feedback that will help you.
• Come prepared to talk about anything that’s bothering you. Your therapist may have ideas of what they want to discuss with you, but ultimately, it’s your appointment! Your therapist will be happy to address anything you want to talk about.
• Do your homework. Many therapists will assign homework between sessions. It’s important that you put in the work. When it comes to therapy, the more you put into it, the more you’ll get out of it.
• Be patient and find the therapist that’s right for you. Sometimes you don’t always find the right therapist on the first try, and that’s okay. Don’t give up! A good therapist will always listen and provide a space that feels comfortable and safe for you to speak openly.
