Feeling agitated and anxious and becoming sad and tired due to pressure and setbacks is just natural.  It is something that we all encounter in life. But if you feel that you can seldom or never control your anxiety and fear and that this has had long-term negative effects on your life, then you might be suffering from generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).

GAD is characterized by chronic worrying about basically every aspect of your life, including work, money, health and relationships. This can, in turn, lead to common anxiety symptoms like insomnia, tense muscles, headache, grinding of teeth, excess sweating, dry mouth, rapid heartbeat, stomach problems and a need to urinate more often.

Our online therapy for GAD is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the guidance of your therapist, you will learn how to identify thinking patterns that may contribute to anxiety and develop more balanced ways of responding to them. Through this GAD online therapy program you can practice relaxation techniques, problem-solving strategies, and exercises designed to strengthen confidence and coping skills. Your therapist may also guide you through gradually approaching situations that tend to trigger worry in a structured and supportive way. Over time, many people find that these skills help them manage worry more effectively and feel more confident in everyday life.

"I can’t recommend Marisa highly enough. When I started therapy, I felt anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in a cycle of overthinking. Marisa created such a supportive and understanding space where I felt genuinely heard and understood.
She helped me work through some difficult emotions and, most importantly, helped me recognise that my feelings were valid. Through our sessions, I gained clarity, confidence, and a much kinder perspective towards myself. What once felt like a whirlwind of thoughts became much easier to understand and navigate.
I’m leaving therapy feeling far more optimistic about the future and much more confident in the decisions I’m making. Marisa has played a huge part in helping me get to that place, and I’m incredibly grateful for her guidance, compassion, and insight."

"I like the availability and the direct support given here. I've been an on-and-off customer for 3 years and I always come back when I need it. The platform doesn't make me fill out long forms, and the direct messaging is always simple."
