We have developed PAXonline, a professional platform for prevention and psychotherapy of anxiety. In order to create an efficient instrument we have used several important principles:
1. An e-mental health solution is not only a toolbox but a psychotherapeutic environment.
2. An e-mental health solution must be focused not only on psychotherapy but also on help-seeking behavior of the person in need.
3. An efficient e-mental health solution creates a community of learning and practice and becomes a part of a stepped care system.
4. It is useful for psychotherapeutic design to assimilate valuable findings from instructional design and we show what and how.
5. The main aim of psychotherapeutic designs in e-health is to catalyze the psychotherapeutic process in the mind of the people. A reconceptualization is needed for the progress of e-mental health solutions.
6. The general practitioner has an important role in addressing anxiety problems.

Besides talking about this important principles we are going to present preliminary data from an RCT and also the results of a natural study.
