Anxiety or Fears
Arpi Isayan, EMDR Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have extensive experience supporting clients manage anxiety and fears, drawing from my training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and EMDR. ACT helps clients accept their thoughts and feelings while committing to values-based actions, reducing the power of anxiety. CBT allows us to identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety, replacing them with healthier, more realistic perspectives. EMDR is especially effective for processing traumatic or distressing memories that contribute to anxiety and fears, helping clients achieve relief and emotional healing. Together, these approaches create a comprehensive toolkit to help clients regain control and move forward with confidence.

Anxiety or Fears
Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I support individuals navigating anxiety in a way that honors how these experiences often develop as understandable responses to stress, uncertainty, or past experiences. Rather than trying to eliminate anxiety outright, our work focuses on listening to what your fears may be communicating, building self-compassion, and developing greater flexibility in how you relate to anxious thoughts and bodily sensations. Together, we work toward creating a sense of safety, agency, and trust in yourself.

Oakland has a politically engaged, social-justice-oriented community where many therapists approach their work through an anti-oppression lens, specializing in racial trauma, activist burnout, and healing within BIPOC communities. The city's proximity to San Francisco means therapists here frequently work with the compounding stresses of the Bay Area housing crisis, economic displacement, and the grief of gentrification. Oakland has strong LGBTQ+ and creative communities, with demand for affirming therapists who work at the intersection of identity, community belonging, and personal wellbeing. Highland Hospital and UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland provide institutional anchors alongside a network of independent practitioners.
