Anxiety therapy is one of the 2 primary treatments for anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorders, social anxiety disorder (SAD), and seasonal anxiety (which may be related to seasonal depression). It also helps with phobias.
In online therapy for anxiety (or in person), you work with a licensed counselor or other provider to learn how to change and/or manage your responses to anxiety. Your therapist may use talk therapy or an evidence-based approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). You can meet in person or do online therapy for anxiety over a secure video conference solution.
Medication is the other primary treatment for anxiety. The 2 treatments are often best when used together. (You may need to see a different provider for each.)

With therapy for anxiety, you meet with a licensed counselor to work through what triggers your anxiety and how to better manage the triggers and the resulting anxiety symptoms. Your therapist may use one or more types of therapy, also known as treatment modalities.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the gold-standard modality for anxiety and has sub-modalities of its own. CBT is a form of talk therapy backed by more than 2,000 studies on its effectiveness for anxiety and other mental health disorders.
Exposure therapy is also an effective therapy for anxiety. With it, your therapist works with you to slowly expose yourself to what triggers your fear or anxiety in small doses with increasing intensity. This exposure lets you work to gradually overcome your fear or anxiety. It’s particularly helpful for phobias and social anxiety disorder.
Other useful therapeutic approaches include support groups and mindfulness, which uses meditation and other practices shown to reduce symptoms of anxiety.
Online therapy for anxiety is virtually identical to in-person therapy. The difference is that, in online therapy, you and your therapist talk using a secure video conference from different locations instead of being in the same room.
Many people prefer the convenience of online therapy for anxiety. They don’t have to travel to a provider’s office and can more easily schedule appointments around other commitments, including working hours. And one large study in the U.K. found that people getting online therapy got care faster and more cost-effectively than those getting it in person.
Whether you prefer in-person or online therapy for anxiety, you can find a provider on Klarity Health for either option or both.
Therapists that offer anxiety therapy online and in person include:
When looking for a therapist for anxiety, find one licensed in your state. You can verify a provider’s license on your state’s division of occupational licensing (DOPL) website. You can also find licensed therapists through your insurance company’s provider listing and on healthcare marketplace platforms like Klarity Health.
You can also choose to see a board-certified counselor or psychologist. Board-certification is an optional step therapists can take. It ensures you find a provider with proven expertise. Look for the initials ABPP, ACSW, APPC, ASW, NCC, among others to identify that a provider is board-certified.
Providers on Klarity Health include caring, licensed PAs, MDs, NPs, LPCs, LMHCs, LCSWs, and more trained in anxiety medicine and therapy.
