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.

"I am so grateful for the Online-Therapy.com program and Beth Lakes, who has been my Therapist since I signed up 2.5 mo ago. Beth is amazing because she cares, she listens and makes me feel understood, and she has helped me redirect my dysfunctional thoughts, and she shares so many valuable tools- and the key is to be in constant communication with the Therapist do the worksheets, activity plan, and write in the journal, I believe.
To get better takes courage and work, and it’s been challenging at times but it’s all worth it. I can see a change taking place in my thought patterns- and in my behavior. I feel more at peace- with controlling what I can control, and let go of everything else I can’t control. I have found a healthier way to deal with my emotions- especially with my anger who almost destroyed my marriage.

"I'm so happy with my therapist, Shelly. I look forward to our weekly sessions. She remembers so many of the details that I spoke about in prior sessions and challenges me to stretch myself. Since working with Shelly my mental and emotional state of mind has great improved. I value her insights, knowledge and generosity."
