Anxiety can affect individuals of all ages, but how it manifests and is treated can vary significantly depending on life stages. At Naxos Counseling in Richmond, Virginia, we understand the importance of tailoring therapeutic approaches to meet the specific needs of children, teens, and adults.

Children and Anxiety 

For younger children, anxiety may show through physical symptoms such as stomachaches or trouble sleeping. Play therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are often effective in helping children express their feelings and develop coping mechanisms. By engaging children in creative, age-appropriate activities, therapists can help them navigate their anxiety with confidence and resilience.

Teen Anxiety 

Teenagers face unique pressures, including social media influences and academic stress. Anxiety in teens often appears as irritability, avoidance, or social withdrawal. Our therapists in Richmond work closely with teens to develop coping strategies using CBT, mindfulness, and open communication. These techniques empower teens to address their worries while building emotional resilience.

Adult Anxiety 

For adults, anxiety may be tied to work, relationships, or life transitions. Therapy for adults often includes CBT, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness-based strategies. These approaches help individuals identify negative thought patterns and develop healthier ways of managing stress.
