Online Anxiety Therapy in California

When anxiety takes up too much space

You may be carrying worry about your health, feeling overwhelmed by a life transition, or noticing long-standing stress patterns that are hard to untangle. You do not need a perfectly articulated reason for seeking support. We can start with what feels difficult in your daily life and what you would like to understand about yourself.

Our work can make room for both the thoughts you are carrying and your experience of stress in your body. Together, we can explore your concerns, your existing ways of coping, and the changes you want to work toward.

CBT-informed and somatic-based support

Cognitive behavioral techniques offer a way to explore unhelpful thought patterns. Somatic-based practices bring attention to body awareness and regulation. I combine these approaches within a collaborative, relational style, tailoring our work to your goals and pace.

You can read about my approach and background before deciding whether to reach out. During a free 15 minute consultation, we can talk about what you are looking for and whether we are a good fit.

Anxiety alongside chronic illness or pain

When your body feels unpredictable, health concerns and emotional stress can become closely intertwined. If chronic illness, persistent pain, or medical uncertainty is part of your experience, there is room for that here too. Learn more about my chronic illness therapy for California women.

Online sessions across California

Sessions take place virtually through SimplePractice. You must be located in California for sessions. Individual sessions are $185, and limited sliding scale spaces are available. I am in network with Aetna, United Healthcare, and Optum Behavioral Health. Contact me to discuss availability and your coverage before starting.

See the therapy fees, insurance, and telehealth FAQ for more details.

Is Christian integration required?

Christian integration is optional. If you would like your spiritual journey to be part of our work, you can explore Christian counseling in California. We can discuss what you would like to include during our consultation.
