Anxiety can affect not only how you feel internally, but how you communicate, make decisions, and connect with the people closest to you. I provide online therapy for clients across California, including the San Francisco Bay Area, who want practical ways to manage anxiety without letting it run their relationships or daily lives. Our work focuses on understanding patterns, building emotional security, and developing tools you can actually use outside of therapy.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
"What If" thoughts trigger anxiety and fears. Most "What If" thoughts never come true, yet you probably spend so much time ruminating on them. I teach you how to explore and challenge your "What If" thoughts by looking at the data or evidence to counter those negative stressful thoughts. I also teach you strategies to calm your body so that it can get out of the "fight or flight" state.

Anxiety
Jaclyn Davis
Psychologist, PhD
Anxiety can feel like a relentless mental spiral—racing thoughts, sleepless nights, and a constant sense of unease that’s hard to shake. It might show up in perfectionism, people-pleasing, or an overwhelming fear of the future, making it hard to relax or be present in your daily life. While short-term strategies can help manage symptoms, I work with clients to go deeper. Using a psychodynamic approach, I help uncover the underlying roots of your anxiety—often tied to past experiences, relational patterns, or internal conflicts. Through a trusting therapeutic relationship, we create space for insight, emotional healing, and lasting change—so you can move beyond coping and into a more grounded, connected way of living.

Anxiety
Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Anxiety is a natural part of the human experience—sometimes serving as a helpful guide, and other times becoming overwhelming or debilitating. Healthy anxiety keeps us engaged and responsible, while excessive anxiety can lead to avoidance, disconnection, and missed opportunities for growth. In our work together, we will explore how anxiety operates uniquely for you, develop tools to regulate and befriend it, and transform its energy into a force that supports your well-being and fulfillment. Through somatic awareness and nervous system regulation, we will cultivate resilience, helping you move through life with greater ease and confidence.

Anxiety
Mrs Sacha Wheeler, LPC-S, BCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, BCPC
Anxiety is unique to other mental battles in that the more you focus on it, the stronger it grows. Often after you have experienced your first panic attack, you panic about panic. Avoidance behaviors grow and before you know it, your ability to function in this world has significantly been impaired. Anxiety has a way of slowly taking over your life and making you feel completely powerless. Learning how to get your life back through the therapy process can make all the difference!

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Anxiety is the reason most people first contact me, and it usually arrives well disguised — as high standards, as over-preparation, as a mind that spins nonstop. I work best with people who want more than symptom management, most often professionals and parents. Together we build a deep understanding of your anxiety: the fears underneath it, what it has been protecting you from, and why reasoning with it has not been enough. You have likely already tried to think your way out. We work instead on understanding it well enough that it loosens, which leaves room to experiment with new ways of being.

Dinesh Shrestha
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
We often refrain from getting the help we need for many reasons, and in doing so, we fail to seek the help we need and often forget that it's never too late to ask for help.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
For many high-achieving individuals, anxiety is not just worry. It is the constant pressure to anticipate, plan, and prevent things from going wrong. It often shows up as overthinking, difficulty relaxing, and feeling like you can never fully turn “off.”
Rather than just managing symptoms, our work focuses on reducing the underlying patterns of overcontrol and over-responsibility that keep anxiety in place, so you can experience more ease and less constant mental strain.
