Therapy for Panic Disorder
at Evolving Minds Counselling and Psychology
Panic attacks are sudden and intense episodes of fear or distress that can occur unexpectedly. Common symptoms include a racing heartbeat, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, dizziness, nausea, shaking, or a fear that something terrible is about to happen. Although these episodes are not physically dangerous, they can be deeply distressing and may lead to avoidance behaviours or fear of future attacks.
For some people, panic attacks become recurrent and are part of Panic Disorder, a type of anxiety disorder that can significantly impact daily life. People with Panic Disorder may avoid certain places or activities for fear of triggering another attack, leading to further isolation and distress.
At Evolving Minds Counselling and Psychology, we offer evidence-based therapy for panic attacks, Panic Disorder, and other anxiety conditions. Our clinicians work with children, adolescents, adults and older adults providing compassionate care.
Treatment may include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), exposure-based approaches, psychoeducation so you can understand the cycle of panic and develop practical tools to reduce panic attacks and manage anxiety.
We provide therapy in-person at our Menai practice in the Sutherland Shire and online.
