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.

"Got off to a rocky start. My first Therapist never showed up to the first Meeting, but Therapy Online reimbursed me and my new Therapist is helping a lot."

"I appreciate how the worksheets ask valuable questions and the responses I get from my therapist in addition to the sessions we have. However I think it would be useful to have options for answering the questions more times in order to bring up other topics. I have also enjoyed the support I receive from my therapist during our sessions."

"I had Lynn Hiscoe as my therapist over the past few months. She has helped me understand why I am who I am along with the guidance I needed to work on improving my relationship with my Wife. She has a very direct, no nonsense approach which I found to be very effective in leading me down the path to becoming more empathetic, kind, and compassionate. I would recommend Lynn to anyone looking for a great therapist!"

"I had been putting off therapy for a long time and now I wish I hadn't. Dr. Powell has been fantastic at helping me understand myself better and I'm looking forward to further sessions to learn more about how to cope with my anxiety."

"Talking with my therapist has been insightful and so helpful for seeing my patterns. And working through how to not let those patterns be destructive.
She is a sounding board when there are tough days."

"I like that it is online and you don’t have to drive to a real-world establishment. You can work at your own pace, rather than be obligated to work at someone else’s pace. The tools are helpful and easy to navigate. The worksheets make it easy to express."
