There is a difference between healthy apprehension and debilitating anxiety. Healthful worry helps you solve problems and keeps you safe, and then it eases quickly. Disordered anxiety takes control of your thoughts and impacts all areas of your life. It steals your joy, shrinks your world, causes deep sadness, holds you back, and can even lead to substance use disorder. 

There is hope. You don't have to live this way. Anxiety is one of the most treatable mental health conditions.

This course is the perfect solution for individuals unable to afford or attend counseling or anxiety relief coaching. And, this course is perfect to use alongside therapy.

Course Overview:

In this online, self-paced, step-by-step anxiety healing course, you will:

• identify the core causes of your anxiety
• learn healthy coping skills and recovery tools
• understand and become in charge of your emotions
• learn to confront fear with a safe approach
• break through internal and external obstacles related to anxiety
• gain the ability to lead a deeply fulfilling life free of disordered anxiety and unnecessary worrisome thoughts

Course Format:
