It could: I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't, though you really should ask someone who does it.

It may: There are many non-pharmaceutical ways to deal with anxiety, including biofeedback. It may not "work" for everyone, but finding a qualified practitioner is extremely important. You can do this through the association for applied psychophysiology and biofeedback: http://www.Aapb.Org/i4a/pages/index.Cfm?Pageid=3281 good luck to you.

Anxiety pregnant: Biofeedback would be a very safe and effective way to manage your anxiety while pregnant. Alterations in breathing from pressure on the diaphragm muscle often contribute to distress that can exacerbate anxiety, and breath training can help. Find therapists at www.Bcia.Org ; www.Aapb.Org.
