Anxiety Therapists in California

Are you a woman that has done everything expected and more, but it never feels like enough, and your life is far from what you hoped? Everyone thinks that you have it all together, but inside you feel overwhelmed by your responsibilities. You realize that you have given everything to your relationships, but you struggle to lean into them because you don’t feel supported. You know that you want to do things differently and be different, but you are unsure of what that even looks like. It is possible for you to cultivate a life you genuinely love, with the people that matter the most, by gaining a deeper sense of who you are. Therapy should be a safe space where you can grow, flourish, and heal. Our sessions will help you learn to see the big picture so you can shift your perspective, get clear about what matters, and create lasting change in your life and relationships. We will focus on the whole of who you are so you can truly be whole and step into your power and purpose. As an experienced women’s therapist, I believe you can resist shrinking yourself to make others comfortable, have confidence managing life’s ups and downs, and prioritize your needs guilt free. Our work will help you develop the tools to create positive, lasting changes that honor your values and wellbeing. Visit my website to schedule a free consultation.

Hello, I'm Michael Marshall, a dedicated Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) based in Rancho Cucamonga, California. My background includes crisis stabilization, triage, and managing outpatient care. Currently, I provide medication management for adults, children, and the elderly and offer telehealth services to ensure accessible care for all. My patients appreciate my compassionate approach. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance. I'm here to help you on your journey to improved mental health. Thank you for considering me as your healthcare partner. TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: Treatment with medication may be life long or temporary. Treatment with medication in combination with therapy provides for best patient outcomes. Treatment plans that include both, may limit the use of medication anywhere from 6-18 months.

As an advanced-trained Emotionally Focused Therapist (EFT), I specialize in working with couples and individuals who are feeling disconnected, unheard, stuck, and alone. By utilizing only the most effective research-based approaches, I help my couples build the skills necessary to hold one another's pain, and communicate in a way that forges connection, instead of disconnection. Similarly, I support my individuals in navigating their current emotions and hardships, while also processing past experiences in order to free them up for more fulfilling, hopeful, and rewarding lives. Should you choose to work with me, I will offer you the empathy, support, and expertise needed to heal old wounds, repair hurting relationships, and transform life's most difficult battles into opportunities for deep, human connection. I will hold your pain in order to lighten your load and make space for renewed connection and hope. I firmly believe that, together, we will be able to overcome the hardships that bring you into my therapy room.

Let's face it, adulting is hard! There's only 24 hours in a day, but we're supposed to somehow find time to keep up with work and school, do chores and household responsibilities, maintain a social life, please the family, sleep 8 hours a night, eat healthy, workout, and figure out what we want to do for the rest of our life. You may be struggling to find a balance between all the things on your plate and thinking, how am I supposed to do all of this by myself? Hi, I'm Maddi. I specialize in helping college students, young adults, and teens transition into adulthood with confidence. I'm the therapist that's easy to talk to, with a bubbly personality, and a seemingly endless supply of ideas. My approach to therapy focuses on collaborating with you so we can work together to help you find a balance and figure out this adulting stuff. Through the therapy process you will find clarity, direction, and purpose. I am a believer that no matter where you start, you'll always end up exactly where you're meant to be. So I encourage you to show up to therapy exactly as you are and we can figure out the rest together. During therapy we will talk, laugh, and maybe even cry, as we work together to help you evolve into the best version of yourself. Therapy sessions with me are aimed to make you feel as comfortable as possible. This means you can bring snacks, blankets, or fidgets, you can take breaks if needed, you can wear sweats, slippers, heels, or anything in between, you can put on music, adjust the lighting, diffuse essential oils, and sit on the floor or the couch. I know starting something new can be scary, so if you have questions or are still feeling a bit unsure, let’s talk! Reach out to schedule your free consultation today.

To the world you appear to be thriving, but internally you feel anxious, overwhelmed and exhausted by self-doubt. You're tired of questioning everything about yourself. You're ready to stop worrying about what others think of you. You just want to feel good enough and sure about who you are. You want to trust yourself to make your own choices. Most of all, you want to get to the root of your anxiety so that you can feel confident in your ability to face life's challenges. No matter what you're going through, I invite you to join me in a safe space of reflection and support along your journey to becoming your most confident self. I specialize in helping teens and adults to develop the confidence and skills they need to overcome anxiety and self-doubt. I often work with high school students, college students, and ambitious individuals who have a desire to unlock their fullest potential and accomplish meaningful life goals. My goal is for you to recognize and trust your own strengths.

I specialize in trauma, including childhood abuse, complex and traumatic relationships, and the ways our minds and bodies sometimes disconnect to help us survive. If you’ve felt numb, isolated, or like you're just going through the motions, you’re not alone—and I promise there’s nothing wrong with you. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both neuroscience and deep compassion. I offer a space where you don’t have to explain everything in perfect words—where your emotions, your body, and your survival strategies are all welcome. As someone who’s walked this path myself, I know how heavy it can feel to carry pain that was never yours to begin with. Healing is possible, even if it hasn’t worked before. We’ll work gently and intentionally to untangle what’s been holding you back, so you can start to feel safe, connected, and fully yourself. You will never be judged for your choices or your experiences, but rather valued for every aspect of your individual journey. You just need to show up—I’ll meet you there, and we’ll move forward together. You can learn more about me on my website at www.SaraSanfordTherapy.com or call/text 415-870-6494.

My pronouns are she/her/hers. No matter if it's change for the better or a challenge we never imagined having to face, it can throw everything in life out of balance. If you're here, it's because you know there's more to life than the way you feel today. You're beyond the point of just surviving day-to-day, and you're ready to tap into your purpose, turning these life changes into something you can feel in control of and ultimately grow from. I specialize in coming alongside people as they walk through the uncomfortable, messy parts of life. I bring a no-nonsense, solution-oriented approach to therapy, helping you come to a place of contentment with life as it is, not as you wish it was (or even as you deserve it to be). Because true peace comes when we come to a place of acceptance: no longer relying on external factors as the source of our happiness. ​Therapy with me is a little different than what you may have encountered in the past. A lot of mental health work these days is very "feel good", leading many to believe that being mentally well is simply being happy or un-phased by the circumstances around them. I believe you're allowed to be angry or anxious or upset when life gets messy. Therapy is simply about equipping you to process and cope with those very real emotions in a productive, healthy way.
