Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by intense fear of public or open spaces. A person experiencing agoraphobia may have previously had a panic attack in public and may begin avoiding similar places or situations because of the fear that it could happen again.

Common places that are avoided include locations that may feel difficult to leave quickly, such as cinemas, churches, stores, or traveling by bus, train, or airplane. If you avoid situations like these due to fear of having a panic attack and sometimes even isolate yourself at home, you may be experiencing agoraphobia.

If this sounds familiar, it is important to know that many people learn ways to manage and reduce these fears. Our online therapy program is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a structured approach that focuses on the thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety and avoidance.

With guidance from your therapist, you can gradually begin facing situations that currently trigger fear. This process is done step by step and at a pace that feels manageable. Over time, many people learn new ways to respond to anxious thoughts, build confidence, and approach situations that once felt overwhelming.

As you continue working through these strategies, situations that once triggered panic can start to feel less intimidating. With practice and support, it is possible to regain confidence and participate more freely in daily life.

"I like that it is online and you don’t have to drive to a real-world establishment. You can work at your own pace, rather than be obligated to work at someone else’s pace. The tools are helpful and easy to navigate. The worksheets make it easy to express."

"I really loved the way the worksheets are sectioned and how you can essentially "do therapy" at any time. It's super convenient and really helped me work through things at my own pace. I have only used the basic membership in the past and am excited to try the live sessions. I have used other platforms like "BetterHelp" but prefer this one as the worksheets provide more immediate guidance and action."
