10. Treatment: Psychotherapy and Mind-Body Connection

Psychotherapy and mind-body connection methods can provide coping mechanisms for dealing with the symptoms. Behavioral cognitive therapy, a type of psychotherapy, can teach a person how to manage stress, reduce avoidance behavior, and change negative thought patterns.

Mind-body connection techniques can help a person cope with the disorder and may improve mood. Yoga, tai chi, and meditation may all contribute to increased feelings of calm. Also, guided imagery may help to change thought patterns, and music and art therapy may help with relaxation.
