Thriving Through College: How Phoenix Health and Wellbeing Supports Students with Anxiety and Depression
College can be an exciting time for many students, but it can also be incredibly stressful. With the pressure to succeed academically, maintain social relationships, and manage finances, it's no surprise that many college students experience increased stress. However, when these feelings become persistent and overwhelming, they can develop into anxiety and depression. At Phoenix Health and Wellbeing, we understand the unique challenges that college students face and we're here to provide support and guidance to those experiencing these issues.
Anxiety can present itself in different ways for college students. Some may experience constant worry or fear about their academic performance, social situations, or personal relationships. Others may struggle with panic attacks or physical symptoms like headaches, nausea, or trouble sleeping. Our therapists utilize evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), to help college students manage their anxiety and develop coping skills for long-term success.
Similarly, depression can manifest in various ways for college students. Some may feel a constant sense of sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness, while others may experience a lack of motivation or interest in activities they once enjoyed. Our therapists work with college students to identify the root causes of their depression and develop individualized treatment plans to help them overcome it. Treatment options may include talk therapy, medication management, or a combination of both.
