Who We Are
Welcome to Anxiety Canada™
Established in 1999, Anxiety Canada is a registered charity created to raise awareness about anxiety and support access to proven resources and treatment. Our accessible online resources help people manage and cope with anxiety and related disorders, including OCD and PTSD. We are a leader in developing free, evidence-based self-help tailored to children, teens, parents, educators, adults, older adults, and caregivers.
We offer services and programs Canadians can trust, including our:
- award-winning free MindShift™ CBT app,
- helpful online courses: My Anxiety Plans (MAPs), and
- online group therapy program: MindShift™ CBT Groups.
Coast-to-coast volunteers with expertise and lived experience support our dedicated staff. Our volunteers include a Scientific Advisory Committee, Youth Committee, and Board of Directors.
Anxiety Canada acknowledges that it is situated on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
