Anxiety Psychologists in Toronto

Anxiety treatment is for fear and worry that persist and get in the way.

The treatments with the most evidence are based on cognitive-behavioural principles ¹. That includes exposure therapy, where you face what you have been avoiding, a step at a time.

A prescriber may also consider medicine, depending on age and severity ². Ask a practitioner how they work with anxiety.

Everyone on this page is listed under the professional title psychologist. Psychologists apply the study of the mind and behaviour to assist people through difficulty. Clinical psychologists work with people of all ages, with families, carers, teams and communities.
