Panic attacks are characterized by unexpected and repeated episodes of intense fear, accompanied by physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, chest pains, tingling sensations in your body and difficulties breathing. With these symptoms, it is understandable that you might think you are having a heart attack and seek help at the emergency room.

Usually, it is not possible to predict when or where a panic attack will occur. Panic attacks are not dangerous but they are still extremely unpleasant experiences every time they happen. Some people experience feelings of unreality, depersonalization and fears of losing control or going crazy.

Our therapy for panic attacks is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the help of CBT, you will learn how your body’s physical symptoms interact with your negative thinking patterns and behaviors to create and maintain your panic. This can help you to identify and change the distorted thinking and de-dramatize your symptoms and panics. With the guidance of your therapist, you will gradually expose yourself to and remain in situations that usually induce your panic attacks. Over time, many people learn to reduce the intensity of panic symptoms and regain confidence in situations that previously triggered panic.

"My experience with online-therapy has been invaluable to my anxiety recovery so far. Jenalee has been an active listener who has provided a safe place to be open and honest without judgment while also challenging and showing me how to reframe negative thought patterns. Thanks to her, I’ve been able to learn useful tools that have changed the way I approach my own thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It’s surreal to see my life slowly changing for the better little by little each day and I couldn’t be more relieved to have received such empathetic and attentive guidance during my journey towards healing."

"I’ve been using this online therapy platform for about a month and it’s been a really positive experience. My therapist is attentive, professional, and gives me practical tools I can use in real life. The app makes it easy to schedule sessions and send messages between appointments. Overall, I feel more supported and clear‑headed than I did when I started, and I plan to keep using it."

"A month and a few days in, I'm aleady seeing a difference in how I feel and act, and understanding myself better. I wasn't sure therapy solely through messages would do much, but my therapist is great at asking just the right questions to get me thinking deeper about things I used to take as "just how I am."

The flexibility is great, and I like being able to take the time to think through things while I'm writing my responses. My therapist's responses are usually quick-- usually there will be a message waiting in the morning and I'll think it over during the day, send my response that night, and continue the conversation the following day.

Even the cheapest tier is worth a shot, in my opinion."
