At Bridges to Recovery, we help select coping mechanisms that work best for each individual, such as meditation, exercise, and creative activities. We facilitate practicing these strategies so clients can continue to use them when they return home after treatment. Clients may participate in group therapy sessions or in support groups to connect with others who are also suffering from panic disorder. The types of therapies we used in panic disorder treatment include:

• Individual psychotherapy. One-on-one psychotherapy is the classic type of talk treatment that helps you explore your emotions and experiences that underlie negative feelings and behaviors. Individual therapy is an essential component in treatment for panic disorder.
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT is a very effective and commonly used therapy to treat panic disorder. This type of therapy helps patients retrain their thinking patterns and change their actions, helping them overcome their panic attack triggers. Group and family therapy are also provided in residential treatment.
• Relational therapy. Panic disorder can wreak havoc on interpersonal relationships. Relational therapy can help you learn how your relationships, life experiences, and emotions are all connected and take steps to develop healthier relationships.
• Family therapy and education. Therapy that involves your family may be a great way to help educate the people most important to you about your panic disorder and about how they can best support you.
• Trauma-focused therapies. If a traumatic experience is an underlying or contributing cause of your panic disorder, we offer therapies that will specifically focus on processing and reframing these traumas to help you improve your symptoms.
• Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). ACT focuses more on accepting unhelpful negative thoughts as they are, rather than trying to replace them with positive thoughts.The aim is to teach people living with panic disorder to cope with negative thoughts and feelings better instead of replacing those thoughts and feelings.
• Relaxation and mindfulness techniques. Alternative and holistic therapies may also be used to treat panic disorder. Most commonly, meditation, yoga, and exercise are employed.

We believe that exceptional psychiatric, clinical, and holistic care can transform the lives of people living with panic disorder. With the utmost dignity and respect, we meet you where you are to help you develop a vision for the life you wish to have, and offer the care you need to achieve it.
