摘要

Anxiety is a psychological and physiological response to perceived threats and serves as a natural, adaptive mechanism. However, anxiety disorders disrupt daily functioning and are often comorbid with other mental health conditions. Teletherapy has emerged as an effective alternative for overcoming challenges associated with traditional therapy, with research showing that it is just as effective as face-to-face therapy in treating anxiety disorders. Key techniques used in teletherapy include mindfulness practices, relaxation strategies, and exposure therapy. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of these techniques, including case management strategies and a case example.
