Overcome Your Agoraphobia with Online Therapy

Category: Agoraphobia Online Therapy | Last updated: February 1st, 2022 | Reviewed and approved by:

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.

"I started therapy about three weeks ago, and my therapist has been amazing! After completing a few online questionnaires, the therapist had a good starting point to address my concerns. He has been invaluable in giving me tools to deal with my issues, and I have scheduled my first video session. So far, I can definitely say it is worth the money. I work out of the US, and we are still able to communicate several times a week."

"It's great having all the resources in one place for a complete approach to mental wellbeing, from journaling (with a template to guide what you write about, while still leaving you with a space to leave your own thoughts) to yoga. I appreciate the centralization of this approach vs. "here's some links or apps that you need to keep track of separately"."

"Online Therapy has been a lifeline to regain myself. Going through life issues that I could have never imagined in my wildest dreams. Dr. Lucy Evans has been helpful in a way that is hard to describe. Living in a twilight zone - she has helped me navigate life and regain my life.

The entire process has been a worthwhile endeavor.

The idea that I can reach out when I have time & need to express my pain & grief & not necessarily wait for an appointment has been invaluable.

The amount of assistance provided by the technical team is top notch customer service.

I highly recommend this service for anyone who is unsure whether an online system is worthwhile!
