Anxiety Therapy in California & Colorado
In-Person & Online Psychotherapy for Adults Who Feel Stuck in Their Heads
You’re tired of living in your head.
You overthink everything — your relationships, your choices, how you come across. Even rest doesn’t feel restful. There’s always something unfinished, something not quite right.
Maybe you look calm on the outside, but inside, there’s a constant current of tension. You lie awake at night with racing thoughts. You say yes when you want to say no. You rehearse conversations before they happen and replay them afterward.
You’re not lazy or broken. You’re wired for survival — but stuck in overdrive.
Anxiety isn’t just a mental state. It’s a full-body experience: tight chest, shallow breath, clenched jaw, a sense of being perpetually on edge. It affects how you work, love, speak, and make decisions. It makes even good things hard to enjoy.
You may have tried strategies before — meditation, journaling, talking it out — but the anxiety keeps coming back. You’re ready for something deeper.
What Anxiety Therapy Can Help With
Therapy can help you understand where your anxiety really comes from — and why it’s still here, even when you "know better." Together, we’ll look at the roots of your fear, perfectionism, self-doubt, and emotional intensity — not to make them go away instantly, but to shift the way they live in you.
You don’t have to stay stuck in overthinking, self-blame, or emotional shutdown. Therapy gives you a place to slow down and explore what’s underneath the anxiety — with someone who isn’t overwhelmed by your emotions, your sensitivity, or your silence.
My Approach to Treating Anxiety
I offer depth-oriented, emotionally focused therapy for anxiety — which means we’re not just learning coping skills (though those can be part of it). We’re working with the deeper emotional patterns that drive the anxiety in the first place.
My style is relational and insight-based. That means I’m paying attention not only to your symptoms, but to your emotional history, your unconscious beliefs, and how you learned to survive in your family, your culture, or your relationships.
I integrate modern psychoanalysis, contemplative psychotherapy, and DBT to help you:
Identify and shift the emotional roots of your anxiety
Feel safer in your body and in your relationships
Understand the patterns that keep you stuck in self-doubt, overfunctioning, or fear of letting go
Learn how to stay connected to yourself, even in moments of overwhelm or uncertainty
This isn’t quick-fix therapy. It’s therapy that helps you know yourself, trust yourself, and stop fighting your own mind.
Why It’s Not Just “Anxiety”
Most of the clients I work with are thoughtful, intelligent adults who appear successful but feel like they’re always managing something under the surface. Anxiety, for many, is a signal — not just a symptom.
It often shows up when you’ve been holding too much for too long. When your boundaries haven’t been respected. When you’ve internalized the idea that love must be earned or safety must be controlled.
Therapy can help you untangle those old patterns — and build a relationship with yourself that’s more grounded, honest, and compassionate.
