ANXIETY THERAPY IN LOS ANGELES & ONLINE THROUGHOUT CALIFORNIA
You don’t have to figure out every “what if.”
Let me guess…
You think through every possibility, but still don’t feel sure.
You replay a conversation long after it ends, wondering whether you said something wrong. A decision that seems simple to someone else sends you into hours of weighing options. Even during quiet moments, your mind jumps ahead to what you need to prepare for or prevent.
You might research, ask for advice, or mentally rehearse what you’ll say, hoping to feel more certain. Sometimes it helps briefly. Then another question appears, and you’re back to figuring it out. By the end of the day, you’re exhausted from how much has been happening in your head.
You want to be thoughtful and make good decisions, but you also want to enjoy your life while it’s happening. Therapy for anxiety and overthinking can help you understand these patterns, practice responding differently to uncertainty, and make more room for the people and experiences that matter to you.
You can move toward what matters, even when uncertainty comes along.
Therapy for anxiety can help you feel less stuck in your head.
Together, we’ll explore what triggers your anxiety, how you respond, and how worry affects your daily life. We’ll make space for the pressures you’re facing while identifying the patterns that keep you caught in overthinking.
I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you practice more flexible ways of responding to anxious thoughts and feelings. That might mean making a decision without another round of research, approaching a situation you’ve been avoiding, or letting a conversation end without reviewing everything you said.
We’ll choose practical steps that reflect your goals. Over time, we’ll work toward helping you feel more able to handle uncertainty, be present in your relationships, and do things that anxiety has been getting in the way of.
