Anxiety & Trauma Therapy for Adults in Santa Monica, CA
In-person and online therapy for adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck in overthinking, or emotionally on edge — even when life looks “fine” on the outside.
Therapy for Anxiety, Trauma, and Burnout
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and driven — yet internally feel exhausted by constant worry, tension, or emotional pressure.
Therapy can help you slow down, understand what your nervous system is responding to, and develop more sustainable ways of living and working.
Areas of Focus
Anxiety & Panic Therapy
Support for chronic anxiety, panic symptoms, and constant overthinking using evidence-based approaches such as CBT and mindfulness-based practices.
Trauma & EMDR Therapy
Carefully paced trauma therapy for single-incident and complex trauma, focused on safety, stabilization, and nervous system regulation.
Burnout & Chronic Stress Therapy
Therapy for adults experiencing burnout, chronic stress, and emotional exhaustion, especially after long periods of pushing through pressure.
You don't have to do this all alone.
If any of the following feel familiar, therapy can offer support.
- Persistent anxiety or overthinking
- Difficulty sleeping or relaxing
- Emotional exhaustion or burnout
- Lingering effects of past experiences
- Always feeling tense or guarded
Therapy can be a space to slow down, feel more regulated, and begin relating to yourself with greater ease over time.
