to
overcome
anxiety?

Do you feel stuck in a vicious circle of anxiety and avoidance? And are you therefore leading a life that is unnecessarily restricted? Excessive anxiety can, if left untreated, have an enormous impact on your daily life, but also on those around you. 

Persons struggling with anxiety often do their best to avoid the situations they fear most. Because avoidance is so effective in the short term, anxious persons tend to keep on avoiding. However, in the long term, this avoidance behaviour prevents them from learning that they can tolorate their feelings of anxiety and face their feared situations.

Psychonline4u can help you break the vicious circle of anxiety!

CBT
for
anxiety

Although the experience of anxiety is certainly an unpleasant one, it’s important to realise that anxiety is not, in itself, harmful. That been said, excessive anxiety can, if left untreated, become a vicious circle with an enormous impact, not only on the daily life of the person with the anxiety problem, but also on the life of those around them.

To give an example: persons struggling with anxiety often do their best to suppress, or escape from, the anxiety they experience in the situations they fear most. They also tend to avoid those situations, in order to prevent themselves from even becoming anxious. Because avoidance is so effective in the short term, anxious persons tend to keep on avoiding.

However, in the long term, this avoidance behaviour prevents them from discovering that they can actually learn to face and handle their feared situations, while at the same time tolerating their feelings of anxiety. By continuing to avoid their feared situations, persons struggling with problems of anxiety end up staying stuck in the vicious circle of their anxiety, leading a life that’s unnecessarily restricted!

Breaking the vicious circle!

Lots of psychological research has shown that the use of top-quality self-help resources, based on the proven effective approach called Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), works well for mental health problems such as anxiety. CBT enables persons who are struggling with anxiety to break the vicious circle in which they are stuck, so that they can reclaim their mental health.

Research also shows that the benefits can be even greater when a person using CBT self-help resources receives support from a professional who has been trained in CBT. This combined approach is called guided CBT, and this is our core business at PsychOnline4u!

Guided CBT is intended to help persons experiencing mild to moderate mental health problems to help themselves, so that they become, in a sense, their own ‘therapist’. So, PsychOnline4u is about helping you to help yourself!

Breaking the vicious circle!

Psychological research has shown that the therapeutic approaches known as CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and PET (Prolonged Exposure Therapy), can be highly effective for treating anxiety.

There is convincing evidence from psychological research that online therapy, such as CBT, PET and EMDR, can be effective in treating anxiety, trauma and depression. However, some people struggle with severe forms of these problems. In those cases, online therapy will not be adequate in addressing their mental health needs. More intensive forms of treatment will be required.

That’s why we, at Psychonline4u, first do an initial assessment to identify both the nature and severity of a person’s mental health problems. That way, we can decide whether online therapy would be sufficient, or whether more intensive treatment is required.   

If our assessment indicates the latter, then we will, of course, discuss this with you and advise you to seek more intensive treatment. And we will do this, as much as possible, in close cooperation with your GP. This is explained in the information about Assessment, and also in our Terms and Conditions.
