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.

"overall i think this has been a great resource for me. i only wish there were maybe other plan options, or a roll over option if you can't make an appointment one week."

"I've tried the big players (Talkspace & BetterHelp) and was a bit leery about switching to this platform initially. My therapist made the move and after doing some searching, I ended up finding her here at Online-Therapy.com. I wasn't thrilled that they didn't have an app, however after the brief adjustment to using a web browser, I've been very happy with how the platform works!

Not only are the prices much more reasonable and accessible, but you get so much more bang for your buck in content and platform functionality!

Obviously I am partial to my therapist, but this platform surprised me. The "homework" is remarkably helpful and the platform is intuitive and easy to navigate."

"Couple therapy had been great. A lot better than I imaged. I feel like I've seen progress from these couple counseling visits and the therapist connects with both of us"

"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."
