Overcome Your Agoraphobia with Online Therapy

Category: Agoraphobia Online Therapy | Last updated: February 1st, 2022 | Reviewed and approved by:

Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by irrational fears of public or open spaces. A person suffering from agoraphobia usually has previously had a panic attack in public and, therefore, avoids similar places or situations due to the fear of re-experiencing it.

Common places that are avoided are places that are difficult to easily escape like cinemas, churches, stores and traveling publicly by bus, train or airplane. If you avoid public situations like this due to the fear of having a panic attack and sometimes even isolate yourself at home, you might be suffering from agoraphobia.

If this sounds like you, please know you are not stuck; there are treatments that can help you. Our therapy for agoraphobia is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT focuses on the negative thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to your fear of having a panic attack and lead to avoidance. With the help of your therapist, you will slowly be exposed to real-life situations that cause your fear of a panic attack. While this may sound scary, it will be safe and will eventually help you overcome your fears. You will learn how to control your anxiety and to look at your fears in a more realistic light. As you progress through the treatment, the thought or experience of panic will become less petrifying. Eventually you will be able to cope with previously fearful situations so you can take control of your life again.

"Overall the services have been great.

I ended up switching therapists near the beginning and found my perfect match. I love that you can do that. I love that you can see people’s availability before switching to make sure they work with your schedule. My therapist is down to earth, acknowledges my experiences and feelings and then provides strategies or actionable tips to try to help me through it and it’s been exactly what I need.

As for the other aspects, I’m one of those people who loves worksheets, so all the worksheets they have you do were helpful. It also helped me feel like I could express what was going on so my therapist already knew and we could get to what I really need help with during our sessions.

"I am delighted and content with my weekly sessions with my therapist, Cynthia. I had to switch therapists several times across different online providers due to dissatisfaction with their inconsistent attendance and last-minute cancellations. There were weeks when I needed those sessions, but unfortunately, I couldn't rely on them.

After just a month with online-therapy.com, I can confidently say that I'm back on track and grateful for gifting myself these weekly sessions. I am committed to continuing this for a year, integrating it as a vital component of my personal growth. I'm in it for the long run and excited about the positive impact on my well-being. I genuinely believe that everyone should consider therapy, as the effects can be surprisingly transformative.

As a suggestion, I hope that a mobile app is developed for easier navigation, and the option for meetings to be hosted on the Zoom platform would be convenient.
