About RTO Anxiety
Your Trusted Resource for Return to Office Mental Health Support in 2025
RTO Anxiety emerged from a critical need to address the mental health challenges faced by 73% of employees during return-to-office transitions. Our evidence-based approach has become the trusted resource for organizations and individuals navigating the complex psychological landscape of workplace reintegration in 2025.
Our Story: Born from Crisis, Built for Solutions
The story of RTO Anxiety begins in early 2024, when workplace mental health experts observed a troubling pattern emerging across organizations worldwide. According to the American Psychological Association’s 2024 Work in America survey, return-to-office mandates were creating unprecedented levels of workplace anxiety, with 42% of companies experiencing higher than normal turnover rates.

- • 28% experienced physical symptoms including panic attacks
- • 45% considered job changes due to office mandates
- • 62% reported decreased job satisfaction during transitions

Our Solution Vision
