Death Anxiety: Understanding the Fear of Dying and How Therapy Can Help

Feeling anxious about death is a common experience, but for some, these worries can become overwhelming and interfere with daily life. Death anxiety often overlaps with health anxiety, making it difficult to manage both fears at the same time. At My Therapist Online (MTO), our therapists specialise in evidence-based treatments like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed approaches including EMDR, to help you understand and manage these fears. With the right support, it’s possible to reduce anxiety, build coping strategies, and focus on living fully in the present.
