"I have an anxiety disorder....What now?"

A lot happens to the body between diagnosis and Recovery.

Anxiety and its tentacles is at an all time high. Burnout, chronic stress, anxiety disorders and panic derail so many of our lives with an often paralyzing effect that shatters our hopes, dreams, and goals.

19% of the US population alone has generalized anxiety disorder with over 6 million people suffering from a panic disorder. Despite this, anxiety is still woefully misunderstood as "just stress" and those struggling are "too sensitive."

There is a space between The Breaking and Recovery. Most sufferers are pushed directly from anxiety diagnosis into changes that seem overwhelming and impossible to achieve. This unleashes a vicious cycle of setbacks, relapses, and the feeling that nothing seems to work.

If you become stuck in The Breaking, the road to Recovery becomes extremely difficult. This course will teach you how to be gentle with your mind, read your body's signals and find Self so you can journey on to sustainable Recovery. 

There is no golden ticket cure for anxious wiring, the miracle lies in learning how to peacefully coexist with your anxiety and discover the hidden gifts that come with it.

Hello, I'm Dr. Jeanne

Dr. Jeanne Retief

I'm an anxious over-achiever with panic disorder and I was stuck in the space in-between for many years. I wish I knew there was a phase such as The Breaking. It could have saved me many tears, setbacks, and heartbreak. After my Breaking I left behind my successful career in international human rights and started on a path toward learning to coexist with my anxious wiring. I don't believe in miracle cures, or golden tickets to "never have a panic attack again." Instead, I learned to love who I am and I've found peace in the many wonderous gifts that come with my anxiety.

Praise for Dr. Jeanne

“I have had the honor of hosting The Sensitivity Doctors podcast with Dr. Jeanne and what I am most impressed with is the calming, supportive and encouraging way she engages with our guests and is always open to learning new ways to support those struggling with anxiety. She truly understands and empathizes with those on the healing journey of self-discovery and has the ability to make others feel seen and heard, while also helping them confront difficult topics and life's growing pains. ”

Dr. Amelia Kelley

“I have attended all of Jeanne’s webinars on anxiety and they have been amazing. Jeanne is so open and honest about her experience with panic disorder and you can tell through her presentation that she is sooo passionate about helping others cope and live with anxiety disorder. There’s literally nothing else like the Anxious Calm in this space - you need to join!”

Emma Lindsay

“I have known Dr. Jeanne for more than a decade, in both a professional and personal capacity. Her most impressive attribute is her ability to overcome her struggle with anxiety and channel calm during public addresses. I have seen her grab control of an anxious situation and bring calm into it. This ability makes her excellent in information sharing and allows her audience to become grounded and to truly connect with her.”

Soretha Venter

“I had the pleasure of interacting and working with Dr. Jeanne on various projects. Dr. Jeanne’s dedication and commitment to her professional space is exemplary. I have learned so much from her vast experience in her field of expertise and life lessons. Jeanne-Mari leads with integrity, enthusiasm and no task is ever to big or to challenging for her. A woman who has always inspired me.”

Mari van Wyk

“I attended a course presented by Dr. Jeanne a number of years ago. It positively changed the trajectory of my career. She is dedicated in developing leadership skills for women lawyers and I will without hesitation recommend her. Thank you for the great work you are doing! ”
