Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Anxiety is both an emotional, mental and physical experience. It could be related to our thoughts in the form of habituated storylines dominating our head space, or we might feel anxiety in the body without really knowing why. By building and strengthening our mental, emotional and somatic self-regulating capacities to uncouple to physical symptoms of anxiety from the thinking mind, skillful action arises bringing more space, aliveness and possibility into your life.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anxiety is a normal feeling. Everyone experiences anxiety at some time in their life. We can feel anxious about different things such as our finances, our relationships, our career, our future, etc. For some, anxiety is temporary and resolves after addressing the stressor. For others, anxiety can be overwhelming and can cause a lot of suffering. If you are someone who experiences chronic anxiety, know you are not alone. While we cannot get rid of anxiety as anxiety is a helpful and adaptive emotion, we can learn to understand and cope with our symptoms.

Santa Maria is a Central Coast California city in Santa Barbara County with one of California's largest proportions of Latino residents and an economy anchored by agriculture, oil, and wine production—particularly in the nearby Santa Maria Valley wine region—and the mental health landscape reflects the specific challenges of a working-class agricultural community where many residents are farmworkers or their family members, facing occupational health risks, economic precarity, immigration stress, and limited access to services. Marian Regional Medical Center provides health services, and community health organizations serve the significant uninsured and underinsured farmworker population, though the gap between mental health need and available culturally competent Spanish-language care is persistent. Common therapy concerns include farmworker stress and occupational health, immigration trauma and undocumented status anxiety, family and intergenerational dynamics in a community navigating significant acculturation pressures, and access barriers in a city where the majority population is often underserved by formal mental health systems.
