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 actually like sitting down and reading through or even listening to the video talk. You can get a lot of tools out of this prgram that if you ever did use it will refresh you or even if it something you’ve never heard of… give it a try you might like the outcome"

"Website works well, though some of the worksheets I feel like can be too long or don't feel applicable to my specific scenario (feels like they have to do a one-size fits all) and would appreciate more of some kind of thing built by my individual therapist."

"overall i think this has been a great resource for me. i only wish there were maybe other plan options, or a roll over option if you can't make an appointment one week."

"Our therapist created an environment where difficult issues could be discussed openly and where both people had an opportunity to express their feelings and perspectives. I never felt that the therapist's role was to simply tell us who was right or wrong. Instead, the process helped bring communication patterns, unresolved issues, and underlying feelings to the surface.
In my case, counseling ultimately gave me something I desperately needed: clarity."
