Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by intense fear of public or open spaces. A person experiencing agoraphobia may have previously had a panic attack in public and may begin avoiding similar places or situations because of the fear that it could happen again.

Common places that are avoided include locations that may feel difficult to leave quickly, such as cinemas, churches, stores, or traveling by bus, train, or airplane. If you avoid situations like these due to fear of having a panic attack and sometimes even isolate yourself at home, you may be experiencing agoraphobia.

If this sounds familiar, it is important to know that many people learn ways to manage and reduce these fears. Our online therapy program is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a structured approach that focuses on the thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety and avoidance.

With guidance from your therapist, you can gradually begin facing situations that currently trigger fear. This process is done step by step and at a pace that feels manageable. Over time, many people learn new ways to respond to anxious thoughts, build confidence, and approach situations that once felt overwhelming.

As you continue working through these strategies, situations that once triggered panic can start to feel less intimidating. With practice and support, it is possible to regain confidence and participate more freely in daily life.

"I found this website through Reddit when I was going through a really bad phase. The worksheets offered on here were really great tools in helping me understand and control my emotions. My therapist couldn't be anymore understanding and accommodating. Having access to her through the messages while I wait for our next appointment has been such a positive. The journal on here has also helped me in seeing the positive in everyday."

"I've almost finished my first month and feel very positive about how things are going. I particularly enjoyed the worksheets which my therapist can review and feedback on. It gives us plenty to discuss in the video calls if there's not something I specifically want to choose to discuss. Marisa my therapist, is really good to talk to and gives me a lot of hope for developing and a happier future being myself. The messaging side of the therapy is great, I always receive very considered and detailed responses to anything I have asked or mentioned. I would recommend this platform to anybody needing someone to talk to or feel they need support."

"I am only a couple weeks into this program and am enjoying it so far. I've had one session with my therapist, Shawn Matthews, and she has been excellent. I felt very safe to discuss my emotions and issues, and the worksheet feedback has been timely and very insightful. I look forward to trying out the yoga and meditation learning next."
