Brief, intensive exposure therapy for anxiety
I am one of the few therapists in Australia to offer brief, intensive exposure therapy to help clients address anxiety problems like the fear of panic attacks, phobias, OCD, social anxiety, and PTSD. Clients who desire immediate improvement can participate in therapy delivered during half-day or full-day sessions, or according to an intensive program that works for them. Learn more...
Video and phone sessions can be a convenient and effective alternative to face-to-face sessions for clients who live too far away to visit the clinic, who prefer to do therapy from the comfort of their home, or whose busy schedule makes online sessions more convenient. The Illawarra Anxiety Clinic offers online and phone sessions for interested clients. Learn more...
