Anxiety Treatment in Denver
Anxiety isn’t just “worrying too much.” It can feel like your thoughts are racing, your heart is pounding, and you’re bracing for something bad without knowing why. Whether it’s panic attacks, constant tension, obsessive thoughts, or a fear that won’t go away - anxiety can take over your day before it even begins.
At Front Range Treatment Center, we help adults in Denver get real relief from anxiety using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). This is the gold standard for treating anxiety - and for good reason. CBT is focused, practical, and proven.
If you’re looking for anxiety treatment that actually works, you’re in the right place.
Why CBT for Anxiety?
CBT is short for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. It’s not just talk therapy - it’s structured, skills-based, and designed to help you break the cycle of anxious thoughts and behaviours.
With CBT, we look at the patterns behind your anxiety. What triggers it? What thoughts fuel it? What actions keep it going? From there, we work with you to make small but powerful shifts that reduce anxiety over time.
At FRTC, CBT is at the heart of our anxiety treatment. Our therapists are trained in targeted approaches for generalised anxiety, panic, OCD, phobias, and trauma-related anxiety.
What Our Anxiety Treatment Includes
Our anxiety treatment in Denver is built on a step-by-step process that keeps you supported, involved, and making steady progress. You’ll work with your therapist to create a personalized plan and then begin building skills to manage anxiety in daily life.
Here’s what to expect:
One-on-one CBT sessions tailored to your anxiety profile
Skills training and behavioural practice between sessions
Journals and tracking tools to monitor progress
Exposure therapy for fears, phobias, and obsessive thoughts
Mindfulness and relaxation training
Optional teletherapy for flexibility and access
Each part is built to help you not just talk about anxiety - but change the way you respond to it.
Targeted Treatments for Different Types of Anxiety
Anxiety isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why we use different CBT techniques depending on your needs:
-
You’ll learn how to track symptoms, challenge anxious thinking, and practice calming techniques that retrain your nervous system.
-
We offer Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard therapy for OCD. It helps you face obsessive fears without relying on compulsive behaviours.
-
We use Prolonged Exposure Therapy, a proven approach that reduces trauma-related anxiety by helping you gradually process and reduce the fear response.
-
With guided exposure and skill-building, you’ll work through specific fears at your pace, with real-life changes along the way.
When Anxiety Comes With Something Else
Anxiety often overlaps with other challenges like depression, burnout, or past trauma. That’s why we also use something called transdiagnostic CBT. A flexible method that works across multiple concerns.
Instead of getting stuck in labels, we look at how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are all connected - and help you shift them in a meaningful way.
Whether you’re dealing with a mix of stressors or one that just won’t let go, this approach can help bring your system back into balance.
Teletherapy Options for Anxiety Treatments
Not in Denver or need a more flexible option? We offer secure, HIPAA-compliant video therapy sessions for anxiety treatment across Colorado.
You’ll still get everything: the same structured plan, the same expert support, and the same tools to reduce anxiety -just from the comfort of your own home.
Not sure if teletherapy is right for you? Let’s talk. We’re happy to walk you through it.
Real Support Between Therapy Sessions
Therapy doesn’t stop when the session ends. That’s why we offer tools and resources to keep you supported between appointments. Many of our clients track their anxiety levels, journal their thoughts, or practice structured exercises outside of session.
Your therapist might recommend guided breathing, exposure tasks, or self-monitoring tools to help you stay on track. These aren’t homework for homework’s sake - they’re simple, effective ways to make your progress stick.
And if you need a check-in? We’re here via email. Support is part of the plan.
Is CBT Right for Your Anxiety?
You don’t need a formal diagnosis to get help here. If anxiety is interfering with your relationships, your sleep, your work - or just how you feel day to day - CBT could make a difference.
This approach works well for adults who want more than just someone to talk to. It’s for people ready to build skills and feel more in control of their lives again.
We start with a free phone consultation so you can ask questions, share your concerns, and decide whether CBT at FRTC feels like a good fit.
The First Step: Anxiety Assessment
Before we begin treatment, we take the time to understand your experience with anxiety, not just the symptoms, but the story behind them. During your first sessions, your therapist will help explore the full picture: your triggers, thoughts, sensations, and behaviours.
We’re not here to box you into a diagnosis. We’re here to get a clear picture of what life looks like for you and what’s getting in the way. Once we understand that, we can build a plan that meets you where you are and helps move you forward.
Anxiety Therapy That Fits Into Real Life
We get it. Your schedule is full. That’s why our CBT approach is built for real people with real lives. You’ll work with your therapist to create a plan that works with your routine and your pace.
Some clients come in weekly. Others prefer every other week. Some work intensively for a few months, while others take a gentler path.
There’s no pressure. There’s just progress, one step at a time. Our goal is to help you feel more like yourself, on your terms.
Let’s Talk About What’s Next
If anxiety is making life feel smaller, harder, or more exhausting, we’d like to help you reclaim your calm. You don’t have to live like this, and you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Call us for a free consultation. We’ll listen to what’s going on, answer your questions, and help you decide whether our CBT-based approach is right for you.

FAQs

We treat a full spectrum of anxiety conditions, including generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, PTSD, and OCD. Many clients don’t know exactly what kind of anxiety they have - they just know it’s impacting their lives. That’s okay. You don’t need to come in with all the answers. We’ll work together to understand your experience and guide you toward a treatment plan that fits your symptoms, challenges, and goals. Whatever anxiety looks like for you, we’re here to help.
-
The timeline for treatment depends on you- your symptoms, your goals, and how often you’re able to meet with your therapist. Many clients begin to feel some relief within 4–6 sessions. More structured, lasting progress typically occurs over 12–20 sessions, especially with consistent practice of skills. If trauma or OCD is involved, treatment may take longer. What matters most is building sustainable change. We’ll work at your pace while staying focused on real, measurable results that make everyday life feel easier.
-
Not exactly. While changing unhelpful thoughts is part of CBT, it's only one piece. The real strength of CBT is in connecting thoughts with behaviours and emotions. For anxiety, that means learning how to recognise the patterns that fuel your stress and actively practice new responses. We’ll help you build practical skills - like exposure, breathing techniques, mindfulness, and behaviour tracking - that change how you react to anxiety triggers. Over time, these changes reshape your nervous system and your mindset.
-
No, you don’t need a formal diagnosis to begin anxiety treatment. While some clients come with diagnoses from previous therapists or doctors, others are just overwhelmed by anxiety and want help feeling better. We treat people, not just diagnoses. Our first step is always to understand your experience - what anxiety looks and feels like in your life - and then tailor an approach to match. Whether or not you’ve been given a label, you’re welcome here and eligible for our evidence-based care.
-
Yes, we offer full teletherapy options for Colorado residents. You can receive the same structured CBT treatment via secure video sessions from home. All our online therapy is HIPAA-compliant, private, and designed to feel just as personal as in-office work. Some clients even prefer online sessions because they reduce commute stress and offer more flexibility. If you’re unsure whether teletherapy is the right fit, we offer consultations to help you explore your options and decide what makes the most sense for you.
-
We’re not a general practice that occasionally treats anxiety - we specialise in evidence-based therapy that’s proven to help. Our therapists are trained in advanced CBT methods tailored for different types of anxiety, and we take a highly structured, collaborative approach. At FRTC, you won’t find vague, open-ended sessions. You’ll find a plan, a process, and a team that wants you to succeed. If you’re ready for therapy that’s focused on results, not just reflection, we’re ready to help you get started.
-
That’s a common story. Many clients come to us after trying therapy that felt directionless, unhelpful, or disconnected from their real goals. We do things differently. CBT is action-oriented and structured - we’re not just talking about your anxiety, we’re teaching you how to manage it. If past therapy felt like venting without change, this might be a better fit. We’ll focus on skills, track your progress, and make sure every session moves you closer to where you want to be.
