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 really appreciate how easy it is to not only find a therapist that fits my needs but the ease in switching if it's not the right fit. I also appreciate the affordability options, the convenient scheduling, and good quality audio/video on calls. I have used the platform for almost a year now and have recommended it to all of my friends."

"I can’t recommend Marisa highly enough. When I started therapy, I felt anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in a cycle of overthinking. Marisa created such a supportive and understanding space where I felt genuinely heard and understood.
She helped me work through some difficult emotions and, most importantly, helped me recognise that my feelings were valid. Through our sessions, I gained clarity, confidence, and a much kinder perspective towards myself. What once felt like a whirlwind of thoughts became much easier to understand and navigate.
I’m leaving therapy feeling far more optimistic about the future and much more confident in the decisions I’m making. Marisa has played a huge part in helping me get to that place, and I’m incredibly grateful for her guidance, compassion, and insight."

"It took a few days to become adjusted to the website but once I became comfortable and familiar enough, I really started to enjoy it. I learned a lot within the first few days about “why” I think and react the way I do, and paying attention to my behavior has opened my eyes to so many things. I used to sit alone and wonder “what is wrong with me? Why do I think or act this way? What can I do to make it better?” I looked for answers in all the wrong places and couldn’t afford therapy out of pocket, until I was recommended to online-therapy. It’s affordable, I get to speak to my therapist more than I was previously, and everything is documented and recorded so I can always go back and review what I’ve already covered as a refresher. I didn’t enjoy therapy before, but this site has made it so much easier."

"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."
