Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia & Sleep Anxiety
Anxiety & Overthinking Therapy
(Online in California)
When Your Mind Won’t Slow Down
Anxiety keeps your brain in constant problem-solving mode — worrying about what already happened, what could happen, and everything in between. Overthinking becomes exhausting, and even simple decisions start to feel heavy. If you’re tired of carrying that mental load, therapy can help you build clarity, calm, and confidence.
What Anxiety & Overthinking Often Look Like
Daytime Patterns

Constant worry or “what if” spirals
-
Difficulty making decisions

Feeling tense, irritable, or overwhelmed

Trouble focusing because your mind keeps jumping ahead
Nighttime Patterns

Lying awake replaying conversations
-
Worrying about work, health, or relationships
-
Feeling mentally “on” even when you’re exhausted
-
Sleep disruption from rumination
Why Anxiety and Overthinking Happen
Anxiety Isn’t About Being “Too Sensitive”
Anxiety and overthinking often develop from long-term patterns — perfectionism, stress, people-pleasing, fear of disappointing others, high expectations, or growing up in environments where you had to stay alert. These patterns can keep your mind in a constant state of threat, making it hard to relax, sleep, or trust your decisions.
Therapy helps you understand where these patterns came from and how to change the way they show up now — without blaming yourself or trying to “think your way out of it.”

How Therapy Helps
A Practical, Evidence-Based Approach
I use evidence-based approaches that help you calm your mind, reduce overthinking, and respond to stress more effectively — in real moments, not just in theory.
Understand Your Patterns
​
We identify what fuels your anxiety — perfectionism, chronic worry, stress, past experiences — and how those patterns affect your sleep, relationships, and daily life.
​Learn Tools That Actually Work
​
You'll build practical skills using cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based strategies to interrupt spirals, quiet the internal pressure, and approach decisions with more confidence.
Change How You Relate to Your Thoughts
​​
Through acceptance-based work, you learn how to step out of the struggle with your thoughts instead of trying to control or suppress them.
