Laura Fleming
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Anxiety can feel insurmountable. If you're experiencing anxiety I want to offer you hope that there is so much we can do together to help you feel more grounded, sturdy and confident. In our work we look at how anxiety is impacting your life and relationships, its patterns, and explore what might be the root of your worry. We'll try a combination of interventions designed to help you become more mindful of your anxiety and strategies to notice your thoughts and feelings rather than control them/push it away. I'm with you every step of the way so you don't have to hold everything you are navigating by yourself.

Misty Johnson
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW
The anxious mind takes us out of the present moment and into a future narrative that may or may not ever exist. We can learn how to anchor into the present moment again and again.

Alexis Hollingsworth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anxiety is incredibly prevalent in our society today especially among young adults, because of this anxiety is one of my main specialties I love working with. I believe that anxiety itself is not the problem but rather how we react to it and how we choose to cope. Utilizing ACT and mindfulness based practices I can help you learn how to cope with your anxiety and take back control of your life.

Anxiety
Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety is not a feeling so much as a state of being. Anxiety attaches it self to a variety of emotional states, adding energy and intensity to our thoughts and actions. There is NO eliminating anxiety. It is hardwired within us, a biological necessity for our survival as a species. Why do we try so hard to destroy it? Because, we reply, it is unpleasant, and disruptive, to our lives. So the key then is to manage it, to reduce its intensity, and to better understand when, where and why it erupts within us.

I provide anxiety therapy for adults experiencing chronic worry, fear, overthinking, and constant internal tension. My work focuses first on calming the nervous system and reducing anxiety symptoms, then on understanding the deeper patterns that keep fear and vigilance in place.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety comes from the fear of getting hurt again or from the perpetual anxiety rooted in experiences of having been perpetually unsafe. In the first instance, the person fears that the source of their pain will happen again and tries to avoid it at all costs. In the second situation, the person looks out at the world and sees the worst possible scenario in everything. Regardless of what your anxieties or phobias are, we want you to know that you can overcome anxiety, emotionally stabilize, and regain control of your emotional and relational well being.

Janice Shapiro
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxieties and fears are actually there to protect us. We all need some anxiety and fear to keep us safe. But when Anxiety and Fear become too intense, they no longer protect; they become obstacles that must be overcome. Together, like detectives, we can find out the origin of these misguided emotions so we can put them in their place.

Advent Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT (R.N.-retired)
Anxiety has a way of narrowing your world — what begins as worry can gradually constrict your relationships, your work, and your capacity for joy. Drawing on my nursing background, I understand that anxiety is not merely a mental phenomenon; it often manifests physically, and its roots may lie in medical, spiritual, or circumstantial soil. Together we will examine what lies beneath your fears, develop practical tools for navigating them, and entrust the weight you were never meant to carry alone to the God who invites you to cast your cares upon Him.

San Jose sits at the heart of Silicon Valley, where the pressures of the tech industry — performance anxiety, imposter syndrome, and the psychological cost of relentless innovation culture — drive significant demand for therapists experienced in high-achievement environments. The city's large South Asian and East Asian communities mean culturally competent therapists who understand the intersection of immigrant identity, family expectations, and mental health are particularly sought after. Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing independent therapy community. Many South Bay therapists offer evening and weekend hours to accommodate the demanding work schedules common in the tech sector.
