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.

"This is a great site that gives you all the tools you need for success in your therapy journey. Having a licensed therapist like Sherrie along also helps so much, the worksheets provided along with the journal really help me take a moment and understand how I feel on a day to day basis."

"The course I went through has taught me the tools and techniques needed to successfully navigate my anxieties. I realize this is a life long journey and I need to be diligent in using the tools and to be honest with myself. The therapist I had for this education was fantastic. She was knowledgeable, caring and took the time to help me understand fully the steps and course material. I am thankful for her help and her ability to be non judge-mental and sympathetic to my issues. I realize everyone is different, this course helped me greatly."

"I love the price point and that it allows me to schedule and know I will have 4 appointments in a month. I loved the quick matching with a therapist and the accessibility of changing my therapist easily whenever I feel its needed. The video session interface is easy to use and was clear though at times there was a voice echo (will be doing next session on laptop to compare connections); overall I am enjoying the accessibility of this service as well as the help I receive from my therapist here!"
