This was a question that was asked by a person on Quora and this is how I answered it:
It seems to me that there are many therapists who state that they can help those with anxiety disorders. However, the apathetically trained therapists will give you outdated methods of dealing with it like cognitive therapy, or will give you some antidepressants which could work if you are in the 30% that experience relief.
Anxiety always has a cause for being there, it doesn’t come out of anywhere, so until you understand what caused it and why your body keeps reacting to situations with anxiety you will be hard-pressed to ever get rid of it, which is most likely your end result.
Those of us who practice Neuro-linguistic programming is able to fairly easily and effectively help you release your anxiety without toxic drugs of minimum efficacy and endless therapy appointments.
We use our subconscious mind to figure out the cause of the anxiety being there and help us to let it go. We have a few different techniques that we can use to help with this process.
Additionally, as a clinical hypnotist, I add deeper work to help my clients let go of the negative feelings held toward those who caused the trauma that was the origin of the anxiety disorder as well as doing the inner child work so that the inner child is no longer running the older individual.
Most people do not realize that when thoughts and behaviors show up that are no longer serving them and indeed are causing problems, their inner child is doing its best to protect them. The inner child is in the individual’s subconscious mind so one has to know how to access and work effectively in the subconscious mind to let go of anxiety (and many other emotional issues) once and for all.
