That said, let's get started...

• If you already know what you are looking for, then you may go directly to that self-help program (the list on the left or bottom of this page).
• If you think you are suffering from an anxiety problem, but aren't sure what kind of problem you have, then take our Self-assessment Questionnaire.
• If you would like to use a book or self-help kit at home, you may purchase one in our self-help store section.
• If you have worked with these skills already and are having trouble, or are needing one-on-one guidance, then I'd be happy to coach you directly on your self-help skills.
