Therapy for Health Anxiety

Break free from constant health worries and learn to trust your body with confidence again

health anxiety
  • Do you often assume the worst about minor physical sensations (e.g., “This headache must be a brain tumor”)?

  • Do you constantly check your body for signs of illness?

  • Do you find yourself Googling symptoms again and again, even though it only makes you more anxious?

  • Are you unable to relax until you get confirmation from a doctor, only to start worrying again soon after?

  • Have you avoided activities, places, or conversations because they trigger fears about your health?

  • Do you go to the doctor far more often than necessary, constantly seeking reassurance that you’re okay? Or do you avoid doctors altogether, afraid they’ll confirm your worst fears?

  • Do you often feel like something’s wrong with your health, even after your doctor tells you everything looks good?

  • Do you find yourself spiraling into panic when you hear about someone else’s health problems, fearing it could happen to you?

If you recognize yourself in these patterns, health anxiety therapy can help you break free from the cycle and regain confidence in your body.

Therapy for Health Anxiety in Houston & Online

Health anxiety can feel exhausting, trapping you in a cycle of fear, doubt, and never feeling “100% sure” that you’re okay.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And more importantly, there’s a way out.

How Therapy Helps with Health Anxiety

Evidence-based treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) can help you:
✔ Reduce constant checking, reassurance-seeking, and online symptom research
✔ Learn to tolerate uncertainty without spiraling into worst-case scenarios
✔ Break free from avoidance behaviors that reinforce anxiety
✔ Rebuild trust in your body and your ability to handle discomfort

Why This Approach Works

Health anxiety thrives on fear and compulsive reassurance-seeking. Therapy helps you confront those fears in a structured, manageable way so you can regain control instead of letting anxiety dictate your health decisions.

You don’t need to feel trapped by your thoughts.

Therapy can help you shift from endless worry to feeling grounded, present, and confident in your health.
