How Stress Management Therapy Works:

At Ann Arbor Therapy & Testing, we offer personalized stress therapy that’s collaborative, evidence-based, and confidential. Here’s how it works:

  • Collaboration: You and your therapist will work together as a team. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach—your treatment plan will be tailored to your unique needs and goals. You’ll have a say in your treatment so that it feels relevant and comfortable for you.
  • Evidence-Based: We use scientifically proven methods that have been shown to reduce stress and improve well-being. Techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and relaxation exercises are part of the tools we use to help you manage stress in a sustainable way.
  • Confidential: We understand that privacy is crucial. Our clinic adheres to strict confidentiality guidelines to ensure that your personal information is kept safe and secure. You can feel at ease knowing your sessions are private and protected.
  • Comprehensive: We take a holistic approach to therapy, considering all aspects of your life—mental, emotional, physical, and social—when creating your treatment plan. This ensures that therapy addresses your stress in the most well-rounded and effective way possible.
