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 think it's great since it's not just therapy sessions, but also messages, videos, worksheets, journal, activity calendar etc. I think it's a great program and my therapist responds to my messages in a timely manner and is very helpful in our video sessions. She said she's seen improvement in me (and so has my mom) and I have seen it, too. I'm very grateful for starting this experience and I want to continue for another 2 or 3 months."

"So far so good. Only a month in but learning A LOT. Therapy is not what I thought it was. I thought it was someone asking you a bunch of questions about your past. But now I have come to realize that like anything in life. It requires you to do the work, and your therapist is just there to keep you from veering off the road."
