Overcome Health Anxiety with Online Therapy
Are You Health Conscious or Health Anxious?
Almost every one of us gets concerned about our health and well-being. And that concern can motivate us to try to optimize our eating, sleep and to lead a healthy lifestyle. Being health conscious can be great. It helps a lot in leading a healthy, happy, successful and meaningful life.
However, problems arise when this health consciousness gets transformed into “health anxiousness”. If you become too obsessed about your health and if you get too apprehensive that you are suffering from a severe illness (without the presence of such medical symptoms), then you may be experiencing health anxiety. In the past, psychologists referred to this as “hypochondria”. However, it is now called Illness Anxiety Disorder.
Illness Anxiety Disorder is a somatic symptom disorder in which the person suffering from it gets overly anxious or obsessed over his/her physical conditions. They see even a minor problem as an exaggerated severe illness. People suffering from Illness Anxiety Disorder often require continuous care, support and assurance from health service providers, family and acquaintances.
See if you recognize yourself in the symptoms of health anxiety:
What’s more, people with Illness Anxiety Disorder can also experience additional mental health issues, such as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Clinical Depression, Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD).
Treatment Procedures
The good news is that Illness Anxiety Disorder can be treated. Effective methods of treatment include Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Exposure Therapy and support. You can receive these types of treatment here at Online Therapy.

Online-Therapy Is Mybest Fit (December 05, 2024)

"I have felt a shift since starting the therapy. Really enjoyed Mojgan as a therapist. Not only did she listen, she provided helpful feedback and tools. Learned new things about myself. Although my chronic illness continues I am finding different ways to look at it and manage it. I am signing up for things instead of avoiding so that I get out of my comfort zone. Signed up for drum class and a photo shoot for women over 40! Very outside my comfort zone but I am excited."

"Steve has been a game-changer for me, and this is after the first couple weeks where things are generally great. I still find by logging in each day and trying my best to be consistent, it seems as though I my negative behaviors are less and positive ones more. It also helps a great deal - as much as the program itself - that Steve seems like a genuinely caring therapist. I really could not ask for more and am extremely thankful."

"I finally needed to do some Therapy, and wasn't financially able to do so on a conventional way. I then found Online Therapy and gave me so much flexibility and help with the subscription plans. I was paired with Bernadette and she's been amazing, so supportive and helped me get over my issues way faster than I ever expected.
Love the worksheets, helped me realise so many things while reflecting on my issues while writing them, etc."

"I’d spent a long time looking for the right online therapy and i am so glad i chose this one. I found no flaws in my monthly membership- the website is build super easy and great, my therapist was so understanding and from the very beginning helpful, supportive and a perfect fit! The worksheets are a great way to get extra help and support during the days with no session and make you reflect on your behavior in a way you didn’t even think of. Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for this."

"I have seen Shawn Matthews for five sessions now and have felt like I have come away from each session with new information about myself. I have seen several therapists over the years prior to Shawn, and would rate her near the top of the list."
