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.

"I honestly didn't have many expectations going into online therapy and was open to where it would take me but reflecting on it – understanding that one's therapist relationship takes time to build – it's incredible to have found someone who is professional and genuinely seems to care and wants to develop that growth with you. It's still a work in progress but Online-Therapy seems to make it as frictionless as they can."

"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."

"I have greatly appreciated this program, and I've seen improvement in my life and how I approach my problems and emotions.
I've done therapy multiple times in the past but nothing really stuck, but this time was different. I think this is due to the fact that there are many activities where you have to sit down and work through on your own (with feedback from your therapist), and therefore this has made me feel like I am truly taking action to improve my life.
The live sessions too have been very pleasant, sometimes it is very hard to untangle your thoughts on your own, so guidance from a therapist was greatly appreciated.
Everything is clear, understandable, and useful."
