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.

"very very very helpful so far
asking the right questions
I've been really happy with OnlineTherapy.com. Getting matched with a therapist was quick and easy, and the interactions have genuinely helped me work through what I was struggling with. Being able to message my therapist and fit appointments around my schedule made a huge difference — it felt way more accessible than in-person therapy. Highly recommend if you're looking for flexible, quality support.""

"Super helpful to discuss what's on my mind openly. Alan has been very thoughtful and understanding of my situation specifically. Definitely personalized sessions. I would recommend. The price is right and it improved how I was feeling and helped me move on from something."
