Minnesota Behavioural Health — Anxiety Management

Rediscover Calm with Evidence-Based Therapy That Meets You Where You Are

At Minnesota Behavioral Health, we know anxiety isn’t just “overthinking” or “nerves.” It can show up as a racing heart when nothing’s wrong, spirals of worry that keep you up at night, or a tight grip on your chest that won’t let go. We help kids, teens, and adults move from anxious survival mode to confident daily living with real tools, personalized care, and a whole lot of compassion.

What Anxiety Really Feels Like (And Why You're Not Alone)

Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic. Sometimes, it’s:

  • Avoiding social events because your mind won’t stop rehearsing worst-case scenarios
  • Waking up already exhausted, because your brain was running all night
  • Feeling like your thoughts are on a treadmill you can’t step off
  • Or even physical symptoms—stomachaches, chest tightness, headaches—with no clear cause

Sound familiar? You’re not broken. You’re overwhelmed—and you deserve support that actually works.

More than 40 million Americans live with anxiety disorders. And yet, too many people still suffer in silence or feel dismissed when they try to get help. At Minnesota Behavioral Health, we’re changing that story—one conversation at a time.

Therapies We Offer for Anxiety Relief

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Identify and shift unhelpful thought loops that fuel worry, perfectionism, and avoidance. Gain real tools you can use in the moment.

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

Learn how to ground yourself in the present instead of spiraling into “what ifs.” Great for managing chronic stress and preventing relapse.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Rather than fighting anxious thoughts, learn to accept and move through them—while still living a life aligned with your values.

Teletherapy

Life is busy. Our secure, confidential online sessions make it easier to stick with therapy from the comfort of home —available across Minnesota.

Your First Step Toward Anxiety Relief Starts Here

You don’t need to “wait until things get worse” or power through on your own. If your anxiety is getting in the way of sleep, relationships, focus, or simply feeling at ease in your own skin—we’re here to help.

How to Manage Anxiety Effectively

Anxiety can be managed effectively with the right tools and support. Common approaches include:

  • Therapy: Talking with a trained therapist helps you build coping skills tailored to your unique needs.
  • Medications: In some cases, medication can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning—your provider will help determine if this is right for you.
  • Lifestyle Changes: Regular exercise, healthy sleep habits, and stress-reduction techniques like deep breathing or meditation can support your mental health.
  • Support Networks: Connecting with friends, family, or support groups can provide encouragement and reduce feelings of isolation.
