Online therapy for anxiety
Anxiety can look “functional” from the outside. You might be getting things done, showing up for others, staying capable. And yet inside, your mind doesn’t rest. You replay conversations, scan for what might go wrong, and carry a tension you can’t fully switch off.
Online therapy can be a place to slow down and make sense of what your anxiety is protecting you from, without forcing you to relive everything all at once. We work gently and steadily, at a pace your nervous system can trust.
If you’d like, you can book a free 15 minute consultation to see whether working together feels right.
You might be here because…
Anxiety doesn’t always arrive as panic. Sometimes it’s quieter, more woven into your everyday life:
Overthinking, analysing, and second-guessing yourself
Feeling on edge, tense, “wired but tired”
People-pleasing, over-explaining, difficulty saying no
A constant sense of responsibility, as if it’s your job to prevent problems
Sleep disruption, tight chest, stomach tension, headaches
Shame after social situations (“Why did I say that?”)
Feeling stuck between pushing yourself and shutting down
For many people, anxiety isn’t a personality flaw. It’s a learned survival strategy — often shaped by relationships, pressure, uncertainty, or earlier experiences where it didn’t feel safe to relax.r story online can make all the difference.
What therapy for anxiety can help with
Therapy won’t ask you to “think positive” your way out of anxiety. Instead, we build understanding and capacity:
Reduce the grip of spiralling thoughts and catastrophic imagining
Work with your nervous system, not against it
Unpick the roots of fear, shame, perfectionism, or hypervigilance
Strengthen boundaries and self-trust (so you don’t need to over-explain)
Shift relational patterns that keep anxiety alive (over-functioning, caretaking, fear of conflict)
Develop steadier inner ground, including when life is uncertain
This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s often about remembering the parts of you that have been organising your life around safety — and offering them another way to feel held.
How I work (integrative, trauma-aware psychotherapy)
I’m an integrative transpersonal psychotherapist. That means I work relationally and psychologically, while also respecting the deeper human needs for meaning, wholeness, and belonging.
In practice, our work may include:
Making sense of your anxiety in context (your history, relationships, attachment patterns, identity, and current stressors)
Tracking what happens in your body when anxiety rises (tightness, collapse, numbness, agitation)
Working with inner “parts” that carry fear, responsibility, or shame
Exploring grief, anger, and unmet needs that anxiety can cover over
Developing practical ways to ground, pace, and regulate between sessions
I aim to offer a steady space that is emotionally precise, warm, and non-minimising — so you don’t have to perform being “fine” while you’re struggling.
What online sessions are like
Online therapy can be deeply effective, especially when anxiety makes commuting, time pressure, or visibility feel harder.
Sessions are:
Confidential and steady (same time each week where possible)
Collaborative (we decide together what feels safe and useful)
Paced (we don’t flood the system; we build capacity)
Practical (you’ll leave with language, grounding, and clarity you can use)
Some clients like to bring a notebook, a warm drink, or an object that helps them feel anchored. We work with what helps your body feel safe enough to be honest.
A note on anxiety, shame, and “high-functioning”
Many people with anxiety are also the capable one: dependable, conscientious, emotionally intelligent, often carrying more than others see.
That strength matters and it can also become a trap. If you’ve learned that love or safety depends on being good, useful, calm, or impressive, anxiety can become the price of belonging.
Therapy can help you loosen the role without losing your warmth.

FAQs: online therapy for anxiety (UK)
How do I know if what I have is “anxiety”?
You don’t need a label to start therapy. If your mind and body are often in threat mode, worry, tension, dread, overthinking, avoidance, therapy can help.
Do you offer CBT?
I’m an integrative psychotherapist. We can absolutely work with thought patterns and behaviours, but we’ll also explore the emotional and relational roots of anxiety, not only symptom management.
I feel anxious but I can’t explain why. Is that normal?
Very. Anxiety is sometimes an old alarm system that turns on even when the immediate reason isn’t obvious. Part of therapy is learning what your system is responding to.
Can online therapy really help with panic or physical symptoms?
Often, yes. When we include the body and nervous system, clients frequently notice changes in tension, sleep, digestion, and the intensity of panic states over time.
How long will it take?
It depends on what’s driving the anxiety and how long it’s been carrying the load. Some people come for focused support around a specific period; others want deeper, longer-term work.
What happens in the free 15-minute consultation?
You’ll share a little about what’s bringing you, ask questions, and get a feel for how I work. There’s no pressure to commit — it’s simply a first point of contact.
Next step
