~Lilian Trustpilot
I had this random shape throbbing pain in the vertex of my head. And it woke me up from my sleep. I went to the ER, and they didn’t run any tests but assured me I was fine. I have bad anxiety and keep having panic attacks, and Dr. Samra Naz reassured me to not panic and these types of headaches although new to me are normal. Thank you

I have anxiety and depression. And I have for a long time now. I have these episodes at night where I feel very sick and just not myself. There is always someone on this app to talk to me. Day or night. And I was recently told by one of the doctors exactly what I needed to hear. They told me things my own home town Dr never would tell me. And they just made me feel hopeful again. I love this app and the drs on it.

Therapy first, but medication when it's helpful
Medication is never automatic and is only included when it fits the overall treatment plan for panic disorder. Moreover, we also offer refill prescriptions if you’re already on medications. In some cases, medication may be used alongside therapy to help stabilize symptoms. We keep everything transparent. If medically appropriate, options are discussed clearly. Such as:
- Short-term or long-term medication options
- Prescriptions that support your mental health plan
- Sending those prescriptions directly to your pharmacy
Note: You’re never pushed toward medication. But when it’s the right call, we make sure it’s handled with care, discretion, and clinical oversight.

Online therapy for panic disorder designed for real panic attacks
Panic attacks, panic disorder, and anxiety can all be treated
If you are someone who thinks your panic attacks are incurable, do not fret; with professional support, all can be treated. But first, understand that a panic attack can be accompanied by physical symptoms. Your panic episodes can likely activate the body’s fight-or-flight response even when no real danger exists. While panic attacks are not dangerous, the experience feels overwhelming.
Moreover, panic disorder develops when anxiety symptoms become recurrent, and the fear of future attacks begins to dominate thoughts and behaviors. Many people with panic disorder start avoiding situations or places where panic has occurred before. This avoidance increases stress and anxiety in the long run.
Online psychological counseling sessions help people understand the difference between panic attacks, panic disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. This understanding reduces fear and allows you to live a life free of anxiety.
Why online therapy works for panic attacks and social anxiety?
Online therapy works well for panic attacks because treatment does not depend on location. Therapy sessions focus on how panic is experienced, not where the therapist sits. Research shows that therapy online, especially cognitive behavioral therapy, is highly effective for panic disorder treatment.
Online therapy removes common barriers such as travel, scheduling pressure, and waiting rooms. For people with panic, these barriers can increase anxiety before treatment even begins. Therapy online allows people to focus fully on learning coping strategies and managing panic attacks.
Cognitive behavioral therapy for your mental health
Cognitive behavioral therapy is the most widely recommended treatment for panic disorder. CBT for panic attacks helps people understand how thoughts, behaviors, and physical sensations interact during panic episodes.
CBT teaches people to challenge catastrophic thoughts, reduce fear of physical symptoms, and respond differently to panic sensations. CBT therapists also use behavior therapy and exposure therapy to reduce avoidance and rebuild confidence.
Online CBT allows people to practice these skills in real situations, making therapy more effective and relevant to daily life.
How therapy for panic attacks and severe anxiety helps over time
Therapy helps people understand:
- Why do panic symptoms feel intense
- Triggers that spark panic episodes
- Fear of physical sensations
- Challenge negative thoughts using CBT
- Decrease avoidance behaviors
- Frequency and intensity of panic attacks
Online counseling for panic and anxiety conditions is imperative for your mental health
Online counseling supports people dealing with anxiety and panic in a calm, flexible way. Therapy sessions can be scheduled around daily responsibilities, making it easier to stay consistent. However, consistency is essential for panic disorder treatment; otherwise, symptoms can return.
It is important to understand that online counseling also allows people to speak more openly, and also when they feel like sharing. Moreover, being in a familiar environment often lowers heightened anxiety and makes therapy more effective. Many people find that online psychological support helps them reflect more deeply and apply coping strategies more confidently. It is also helpful for unexpected panic attacks and depression that strikes hard when you least expect it. With Your Doctors Online, you can get an appointment today and talk to a health care provider in just a few minutes.
- It is simple.
- It is gentle.
- It fits the rhythm of your life.
Online psychiatric care as part of panic disorder treatment
Some people benefit from therapy alone. Others may need medication support, especially if panic attacks are severe or recurrent. Online psychiatric care allows people to speak with a psychiatrist in a supportive setting.
Medication, when used, is always part of a long-term treatment plan for you. Online psychiatric services make sure that prescriptions are evidence-based, monitored, and adjusted when needed.
Finding the right therapist for anxiety or fear in certain situations
Finding the right therapist is the first step to progress. Your Doctors Online has specialized mental health providers with no waiting time. Online therapy, in this regard, makes it easier to connect with professionals who specialize in mental health conditions like panic disorder and anxiety disorder.

Long-term outcomes with online counseling
With consistent online therapy, many people experience fewer panic attacks, reduced anxiety, and improved quality of life. Therapy online supports skill development, symptom awareness, and relapse prevention.
Panic attacks do not have to control daily decisions or limit functioning. Evidence-based online therapy offers a structured path toward stability, confidence, and long-term recovery.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to recover from anxiety and panic attacks?
To recover from panic attacks, you may have to first treat the underlying condition. It may take 3 months or more until the situation gets better. Consult our doctor at Your Doctors Online for the treatment of anxiety and panic attacks.
How do you stop a panic attack fast?
A panic attack can be stopped by doing breathing exercises to take longer and deeper breaths and breathe from the nose. This helps you focus on your breathing with closed eyes and helps reduce panic attacks. Another strategy is the 333 rule. In this rule, you have to find three objects in your environment, three moving body parts, and identify three sounds. This process helps in focusing and reducing the overwhelming effect of anxiety.
Do I have to take medication?
No. Medication is never mandatory. It’s only discussed if symptoms warrant it, and only initiated if you feel comfortable.
What is the immediate treatment for a panic attack?
The instant panic attack treatment includes breathing exercises. Breathing slowly with deep breaths through the nose, counting to 5 with each inhale, and exhaling with closed eyes can help relax the body and treat a panic attack.
How do you stop panic attacks in the elderly?
Panic attacks can be treated in the elderly via anti-anxiety drugs prescribed by your doctor. However, these drugs have side effects, and doctors only prescribe them in extreme cases where other management options don’t work.
