Test Taking Anxiety

Do you ever get nervous before an exam? You’ve studied for it, you know the material, you’ve done well on the homework problems, and, then, come test time, you freeze.

Test Anxiety Statistics:

Cizek and Burg (2006) found that test anxiety affects up to 40% of students. Bradley et al (2010) found that 61% of students are affected by this at least some of the time, and 26% almost always!

Medical hypnosis can be extremely effective in helping students take tests even more confidently. Dr. Lazarus also incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques when he sees patients with any type of anxiety. CBT has been shown to be extremely effective for anxiety of all sorts, and Dr. Lazarus has found that by using a combination of medical hypnosis and CBT, his patients not only learn some extremely powerful tools, but they also have significant improvement after only 1 to 3 visits.

Below you can watch Dr. Lazarus’ interview with an Olympic Silver Medalist. Her advice is universal and can be applied to people who are struggling with test taking anxiety.

It's time for you (or your child) to find relief with Hypnosis Therapy & CBT

With only a series of 5 sessions, I can happily say that my migraine pain level has decreased by at least 50%, and that I no longer experience severe attacks where I am paralyzed by the pain.

Joe has never been dry at night. At the first meeting, he talked with Dr. Lazarus and received some “homework.” When he returned the following week, he had been dry five out of seven nights! At the second visit, he learned self-hypnosis-and he has been dry ever since.

I had migraines once a day with a really bad one maybe twice a month. After seeing Dr. Lazarus two times, sessions, I haven’t had a migraine since. Dr. Lazarus really helped me out a lot.

Dr. Lazarus had such an impact. Our son doesn’t have any tics anymore. We are in the process of relocating to another city, but Dr. Lazarus is still our pediatrician regardless of where we live.
