Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by irrational fears of public or open spaces. A person suffering from agoraphobia usually has previously had a panic attack in public and, therefore, avoids similar places or situations due to the fear of re-experiencing it.

Common places that are avoided are places that are difficult to easily escape like cinemas, churches, stores and traveling publicly by bus, train or airplane. If you avoid public situations like this due to the fear of having a panic attack and sometimes even isolate yourself at home, you might be suffering from agoraphobia.

If this sounds like you, please know you are not stuck; there are treatments that can help you. Our therapy for agoraphobia is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT focuses on the negative thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to your fear of having a panic attack and lead to avoidance. With the help of your therapist, you will slowly be exposed to real-life situations that cause your fear of a panic attack. While this may sound scary, it will be safe and will eventually help you overcome your fears. You will learn how to control your anxiety and to look at your fears in a more realistic light. As you progress through the treatment, the thought or experience of panic will become less petrifying. Eventually you will be able to cope with previously fearful situations so you can take control of your life again.

"So glad that me and my husband were able to find a marriage counseling situation that works for us. Being a therapist myself, I was hesitant and Katie and embraced this and has been able to help me quite a lot to separate provider from wife. She presented herself in a way where we both feel supported and able to tap into vulnerability. Make plans and move in a direction that is healthy. My understanding is that Katie has a history of providing trauma services to individuals as well in addition to many other things- Very knowledgeable, Supportive, And also able to tow the line and set boundaries for us both in a way that is gentle. Thank you so much Katie and Online Therapy! My husband and I both believe that we will be able to keep our marriage intact and move forward in a healthy way and would likely not have been able to do this without the service that Katie is providing. Highly recommend this therapist, regardless of the issues that one is living with!! Danni & David"

"I can’t say enough good things about Bernadette. She’s my very first therapist, and I’ve been working with her for about a year now. From the beginning, she made me feel comfortable, supported, and truly heard. Therapy with her has helped me grow so much, and I honestly feel great compared to where I started. She’s thoughtful, kind, and incredibly helpful, and I’m so grateful I found her. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering therapy."

"My therapist confronted me with objectivity from the first session in a compassionate and honest way. I needed that frankness in my life when I was not holding myself accountable and I am working on carrying that introspection every day now. It is a practice but this website and the professional I was connected with have given me much needed perspective."

"The system works well, tech support is amazing, when asked about my first online therapy session I reported that it froze a couple of times. The tech investigation and subsequent report was exceptional.
My therapist is friendly and supportive, listens well and advises clearly. All in all a happy customer."

"Online therapy has helped me to sort out several trauma issues I thought that I had already dealt with. Due to many changes in my life I began to feel unstable, I reached out for help and Dana really helped me to resort and put my thoughts into proper order, so I can keep moving forward in triumph."
