Anxiety is primarily defined as a disorder characterized by avoidance.</p> <p>Holistic, psychological, verbal group, and dance therapy literature are explored with relevance to the existing treatment of anxiety. Similarities between dance therapy and mind-body therapies are explored as they both encourage feeling and acting in the here and now.</p> <p>The value of dance therapy and verbal group treatment techniques are supported by existing literature on the use of such combination treatments, as well as examples from practice.</p>"}
