Online Therapy for Anxiety
Anywhere in California
Welcome to One Mind Therapy
We’re happy you’re here. One Mind Therapy is a collective of like-minded therapists who work with individuals across California. Our team has years of experience working with individuals with anxiety, and are here to support you in your journey.
Understanding Anxiety
Everybody experiences moments of anxiety, but when does it become an issue? Of course there are diagnostic criteria in the DSM-V for anxiety disorders to help differentiate normal anxiety from anxiety disorders. Anxiety is a natural protective response in the mind and body, but it may become persistent, intense, or disruptive.
Symptoms of anxiety can include excessive worry, irritability, racing heart, muscle tension, insomnia, stomach upset, and many more. How anxiety presents varies greatly from person to person, as do the causes. It may manifest in any combination of physical, emotional, and mental symptoms.
When you feel that anxiety is getting in the way of your life, it’s time to reach out for help. Our California-licensed therapists use proven methods like CBT, which research shows to be an effective treatment for anxiety. We also have therapists who specialize in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, trauma therapy, couples therapy, and holistic therapy to fit your needs.
Types of Anxiety
Anxiety can arise in many different forms. Here at One Mind Therapy, we work with individuals struggling with anxiety in all of its shapes and sizes.
Generalized Anxiety
Generalized anxiety disorder, or GAD, is characterized by chronic worry about everyday situations. People with GAD often share feeling like the mind won’t shut off, and may find it difficult to pause and relax.
Health Anxiety
Health anxiety is anxiety specifically about illness, pain, and general health. People experiencing health anxiety may constantly check their health, find it difficult to stop thinking about health, and seek reassurance repeatedly.
Panic Disorder
Characterized by sudden and intense fear, panic attacks and panic disorders can cause strong physical symptoms and a powerful fear of future panic attacks.
Social Anxiety
Social anxiety can arise at work, with friends, or in public spaces. Individuals with social anxiety may fear judgement or embarrassment, and often struggle to be authentic around others.
Trauma
Trauma-related anxiety may result in a state of hypervigilance, general feelings of being unsafe, and activation of the nervous system. It often requires a form of trauma-informed therapy to help treat.
Relationships
Relationship anxiety may manifest as fear of abandonment, overthinking aspects of the relationship, or finding difficulty in building trust. It often gets in the way of an otherwise healthy relationship.

The Benefits of Online Therapy
Research suggests online therapy is generally just as effective as in-person therapy. More severe psychological cases may benefit from in-person sessions. For mild to moderate cases, the benefits of online therapy include:
Improved convenience - No commutes, waiting rooms, or managing childcare and other responsibilities,
Greater comfort - Sessions from home mean you can be in your safe space rather than a steril office,
Increased accessibility - Wherever you are in California, we can see you. You’re not limited to therapists in your immediate area
How Online Therapy Works
Online anxiety therapy works just in-person therapy! The first session may include a bit of history-taking, reviewing treatment goals and what brought you to therapy, and an opportunity for you to get to know your therapist. You will meet with your therapist on a regular schedule from the comfort of your own home or space. We ask that you find a relatively quiet, private space to offer your full attention in each session.

Common Questions
-
Yes. A meta-analysis of 14 studies found internet-based therapy to be as effective in treatment of anxiety as in-person therapy. Much like in-person therapy, online sessions require participation from both parties.
-
No! Our therapists are licensed in California. As long as you are in California, we can see you. If you travel outside the state, the therapist must hold an active license in that state to see you during that time.
-
The answer here depends on the individual. Generally, CBT is the leading type of therapy when it comes to treating anxiety. Mindfulness-based interventions, trauma therapy, EMDR, and ACT have also been found to be useful.
-
Many of our therapists have past experience working with larger therapy corporations offering online therapy (we won’t name names). Here at One Mind Therapy, our small team offers more personalized care. We don’t have overwhelming caseloads, work as a team supporting one another, and you will see the same therapist every week. We prioritize client care, and never collect nor sell any data.
-
Yes. All of our therapists have private office spaces with locking doors. Sessions are offered in a completely confidential manner from our end, with your privacy in mind. On your end, you are responsible for wearing headphones, finding a private space, and maintaining your personal privacy.
