Panic Attack Therapy London

What Are Panic Attacks?

A panic attack is a sudden, intense surge of fear or physical discomfort — racing heart, shortness of breath, chest tightness, dizziness, or an overwhelming sense that something catastrophic is about to happen. Panic attacks are among the most distressing experiences a person can have, yet they are highly responsive to the right therapeutic treatment.

Our Practitioners Who Work with Panic Attacks

How We Treat Panic Attacks

CBT forms the cornerstone of our treatment, alongside somatic and body-focused therapies, breathing and regulation techniques, and where appropriate, trauma-informed therapy. Treatment is compassionate, practical, and focused on giving you real tools to interrupt and dismantle the panic cycle.

Why Choose London Trusted Therapy for Panic Attacks?

Panic attacks are among the most physically frightening experiences a person can have. The fear that something is catastrophically wrong — even when you know, rationally, that it is not — is real and deserves expert, compassionate treatment. At London Trusted Therapy, we understand the panic cycle from the inside out, and we know how to help you break it.

A clinically led, multidisciplinary team

Every practitioner at London Trusted Therapy holds substantial postgraduate training and professional accreditation, with a minimum of five years of clinical experience and an average of fifteen to twenty years across the team. Our practitioners include chartered and counselling psychologists, psychotherapists and counsellors accredited with the BACP, UKCP, COSRT and HCPC- all working under the clinical direction of Dr Olena Edwards-Skadowska, BACP Accredited Psychotherapist, MBPsS, FMBPsS, and actively practising clinician.

Dr Edwards-Skadowska is the recipient of the Outstanding Leadership Award for Services to Mental Health, presented at the Health 2.0 Global Conference 2024 — a recognition that reflects the values of excellence, integrity, and genuine clinical commitment that run through everything London Trusted Therapy does.

London Trusted Therapy does. At London Trusted Therapy, you will be seen by a practitioner who is an expert in panic attacks and panic disorder — someone who brings deep, focused expertise to your presentation, rather than whoever is next available.

The Breadth to Meet Your Full Picture

Panic does not always exist in isolation. Where it is linked to trauma, health anxiety, or underlying physical concerns, our multidisciplinary structure allows for seamless internal cross-referral — to EMDR specialists for trauma processing, to psychiatry where a medication review would be helpful, or to other clinicians within the team. You receive joined-up care without having to begin your story again.

A holistic, integrative approach

London Trusted Therapy is a holistic practice. We do not begin with a protocol and fit you to it — we begin with you. For panic, this means leading with the body: Somatic Experiencing works directly with the physiological patterns that drive the panic cycle, helping the nervous system learn — at a felt, bodily level — that it is safe. Mindfulness-based approaches build the capacity to observe the rising tide of panic without being overwhelmed by it. Breathwork and nervous system regulation provide practical, in-the-moment tools. Where understanding the thought patterns that maintain panic is useful, CBT is integrated as a complementary element. Where panic has roots in earlier trauma, EMDR offers a powerful pathway to resolution. Our focus is on lasting change, not temporary relief.
