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 really like the lessons and especially the worksheets. They’re very useful because they help me identify my problems and work on improving them. It makes me feel like an active participant. I also like that I can choose whether to watch the video, listen to the audio, or read the text. Overall, I’d say this course is more comprehensive than any other CBT treatment I’ve done so far."

"I have been using online therapy for a month and am quite happy so far. I like my therapist and have gained useful insights. Being able to message in between sessions is great. I have not really used the other resources provided in my membership like the yoga videos or self guided lessons. But so far, so good. I am planning to continue my membership and also recommended it to a couple of friends."

"Dr. Vicki has helped me so much in such a short time, it's amazing! She has always been very flexible, patient, and caring with her approach. She has allowed me a safe space to not be ashamed of myself or the things that I want to change. I value my relationship with her very much, and I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to pull a complete 180! She has made an extremely positive change in how I see my life, my situation, myself, my brain, and my challenges. Thank you so much!!"

"Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with my therapist S. Queen was one of the most beneficial actions I'd taken to invest in myself. The key is to be honest with yourself and do the work. For most men like myself, therapy is an uncomfortable venture but it is an absolutely essential tool in navigating the challenges in life, relationships, challenges and more. Thank you to online-therapy and to you too, S. Queen."
