Interview by Lon Woodbury
Dr. Dan Villiers, Founder and Director of Admissions of The Mountain Valley Treatment Center spoke with Lon Woodbury on L.A. Talk Radio about debilitating anxiety in teenagers and a variety of effective therapeutic treatment plans for this disorder.
Background
Dan graduated from Kenyon College and obtained Masters Degrees from Kent State University and Dartmouth College. He then received a combined Ph.D. in Counseling and School Psychology from Northeastern University.
The Mountain Valley Treatment Center offers therapy for adolescents struggling with higher-than-normal levels of anxiety, anxiety so severe that it weakens their potential in school and causes acute discomfort in any social situation. Mountain Valley Treatment Center is a special place that offers highly-effective methods for managing unusual stress because of its specialization in only treating anxiety disorders. Adolescents who come here experience renewed psychological health and wellness. Teenagers benefit from the uplifting natural surroundings, the special therapeutic approach and the extensive care.
Defining High Anxiety
Although stress and anxiety is a typical part of individual teenage development, it can become debilitating for teenagers when it disrupts their capacity to deal with life in school--and even at home. Acute anxiety is a prolonged and heightened response to a demanding situation and it can disrupt an individual's capacity to manage the normal needs of daily life.
During the interview, Dan went over the causes as well as symptoms of chronic anxiety, and he also discussed numerous solutions.
Treatment Programs
The Mountain Valley Treatment Center was established to help with abnormal reactions to stress and high anxiety. It is the program of last resort when school counselors and psychotherapists cannot make a significant change in the teenager's mental health. Therapy works here due to the fact that treatments are even more intensive--exceeding the conventional fifty minute hour--and longer in duration--lasting from 30 to 90 days in a gorgeous, peaceful environment.
The highly-structured treatment plans use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, family systems therapy and short-term psychodynamic therapy.
Conclusion
The L.A. Radio Talk show addressed many concerns about stress and anxiety, the discussion ranging from just what symptoms to observe to just how parents should respond. It also discussed what is the most effective way to take care of anxiety. The talk show guest provided examples of precisely how the treatment his program offered has proven to be amazingly successful in dealing with a mood condition that is at an epidemic proportion in the United States.
