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 have a very busy work schedule and I have wanted to start therapy for quite some time. The nature of my work makes my schedule unpredictable and subject to last minute changes. I am so happy I found Online Therapy. Not only do they use evidence based practices, have efficient therapists, and tons of available teams on every day of the week, but also I schedule my own appointments when my work schedule is locked in. I couldn't ask for more."

"This program gives some quality ideas for helping work through some emotional and mental situations. The therapists respond quickly to messages/notes that I left on the worksheets. I would encourage someone to try this out even if it is just to get ideas. However, I think it would be better sign up for live sessions if someone is having more pressing issues they need to talk about."

"So far a good experience, I really appreciate how easy it is to switch therapists and the response times CAN be slow but aren't terrible. Not sure how useful the worksheets are on their own, but they're good conversation starters for your therapist!"
