What are panic attacks?
Panic attacks often come without warning — sudden surges of fear, tightness in the chest, dizziness, or a fear of dying. You may feel like something terrible is about to happen, or like you’re losing control.
Though the experience feels physical, panic is deeply tied to unconscious emotional processes.

What causes panic attacks?
Panic may arise after trauma, loss, or prolonged stress. But often, its origins are unclear. What is certain is the intensity — and the confusion it brings.
In psychoanalytic therapy, we see panic as a rupture — where something unspoken breaks through. The work is to trace what the panic is saying and what it interrupts.

How we work
We don’t offer short term solutions or distraction techniques. We create space for the panic to be unravelled — understood as something formed through experience.
Psychotherapy listens to what panic disrupts and what it expresses. Lasting relief doesn’t come through suppression — it begins by hearing the symptom on its own terms.

Is therapy for panic attacks right for me?
You don’t need a diagnosis or crisis to begin therapy.
You may be afraid the panic will return, or feel confused of how it takes over. Perhaps you’ve tried everything else.
Psychotherapy offers another way — not just to contain the panic, but to understand it and move beyond it.
