Approaches that help with panic and anxiety
Demetria draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address panic attacks and ongoing anxiety. One approach focuses on teaching grounding and breathing skills to reduce the intensity of a panic attack and help people regain control in the moment. Another approach works on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns that keep fear and avoidance active, helping people respond differently to triggers rather than feeling overwhelmed.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. She collaborates with each person to try techniques that fit their needs and goals, adjusting methods over time. Sessions include check-ins about what helps and what doesn’t, so treatment stays practical and tailored.
