What is an Anxiety Coach—and Why Are They So Needed?
An anxiety coach is trained to work with clients experiencing worry, fear, panic, avoidance, or emotional shutdown. But unlike generic coaching, anxiety coaches use evidence-informed frameworks to help clients manage anxiety in daily life.
Whether you're working with adults, teenagers, or children, anxiety coaching is focused, practical, and change-oriented.
Clients don’t need more talking—they need tools.
They need someone who understands fear behaviourally and emotionally.
That’s the role of a certified anxiety coach.
Why Train as an Anxiety Coach?
1. You want to help people with anxiety using practical, structured tools
Most people living with anxiety aren’t looking for vague support. They want clarity. Reassurance. And methods that actually work. As an anxiety coach, you’ll be trained to deliver sessions that make a measurable difference from the start.
2. You want a career that blends meaning with flexibility
Whether you're transitioning from teaching, care work, youth services, or something entirely different, anxiety coaching offers a professional path that adapts to your life. You can work online, in person, with groups or individuals.
3. You want to work with adults, children, or both
The STILL Method anxiety coach certification gives you tools that are age-adaptable and psychologically grounded. Whether you're supporting a 40-year-old in burnout or a 10-year-old struggling with school refusal, you’ll know exactly what to do.
What Makes STILL Method Coach Training Different?
Let’s be honest: there are hundreds of coaching courses out there. Most are vague. Some are shallow. Very few give you a clear framework you can actually use.
The STILL Method is a structured, trauma-informed anxiety coaching programme developed over six years and trusted across schools, care homes, and private practices.
As part of your training, you’ll learn:
A complete five-pillar model to break anxiety patterns
How to use metaphors, scripting, and coaching language effectively
Session-by-session structures to deliver measurable impact
Tools for fear, shutdown, intrusive thoughts, overthinking, and more
Techniques suitable for neurodivergent clients and complex presentations
