Counseling Perspective

Anxiety Therapy and Treatment in Singapore

Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), commonly known as anxiety, is a medical condition where individuals experience excessive and ongoing worry that often feels disproportionate to the reality of the situation. While anxiety is a normal response that everyone experiences at different times, it becomes problematic when it is overwhelming or appears in everyday situations that pose no real danger. This heightened sense of worry can significantly impact one's ability to focus, sleep, and carry out daily tasks.

Starting from $150 / 60-min session

At Counseling Perspective, we recognise that each person experiences anxiety differently, which is why our approach to anxiety counselling is tailored to individual needs. We draw on a variety of therapeutic techniques, including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). EMDR can be highly effective in addressing fear-based anxieties, providing immediate and long-lasting relief. CBT, on the other hand, helps clients challenge and change limiting beliefs by focusing on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

Mindfulness-based therapies are also valuable in managing anxiety by encouraging present-moment awareness, reducing the grip of persistent negative thought patterns. By practising specific techniques taught by the therapist, clients can strengthen their mental resilience, much like training muscles at the gym. If you're struggling with anxiety and seeking support, reach out to us via email, phone, or WhatsApp to schedule a session with one of our trained therapists.
