Panic attacks are characterized by unexpected and repeated episodes of intense fear, accompanied by physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, chest pains, tingling sensations in your body and difficulties breathing. With these symptoms, it is understandable that you might think you are having a heart attack and seek help at the emergency room.

Usually, it is not possible to predict when or where a panic attack will occur. Panic attacks are not dangerous but they are still extremely unpleasant experiences every time they happen. Some people experience feelings of unreality, depersonalization and fears of losing control or going crazy.

Our therapy for panic attacks is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the help of CBT, you will learn how your body’s physical symptoms interact with your negative thinking patterns and behaviors to create and maintain your panic. This can help you to identify and change the distorted thinking and de-dramatize your symptoms and panics. With the guidance of your therapist, you will gradually expose yourself to and remain in situations that usually induce your panic attacks. Over time, many people learn to reduce the intensity of panic symptoms and regain confidence in situations that previously triggered panic.

"Been very beneficial so far"

"I live in an environment where I can’t pick up and go see a therapist. I have found using this site, my chosen therapist and the structured program very therapeutic. I would recommend it to anyone who is feeling isolated and needs to reach out and seek guidance. Finding support is a text, click or virtual appointment away and I have found it very beneficial to my mental/emotional and physical well being."
