Anxiety & OCD Therapy in California

Online & Walk-and-Talk in Santa Clara & San Jose

I help adults who are tired of living in their heads and ready for relief from anxiety and overthinking.

Even when things look “fine” on the outside, your mind keeps looping: worrying about what you said, imagining what could go wrong, juggling a dozen what-ifs.

Therapy can help you get out of anxious spirals so you can sleep better, feel present, and enjoy your life.

No forms. No pressure. Just a quick call to see if this feels like a good fit.

When You’re Mind Won’t Shut Off

Some days it’s a steady hum of tension. Other days it spikes into panic or overwhelm. Either way, it’s exhausting to feel like your mind is always “on.”

  • Getting caught up in worst-case scenarios that feel painfully real

  • Second-guessing and overanalyzing decisions

  • Struggling to get things done because your mind keeps circling back to worries

  • Scrolling or busying yourself just to get a break from your thoughts

  • Over-apologizing, double-checking, or needing reassurance

  • Feeling drained, irritable, or like you’re falling short

What Can Change

Therapy isn’t just talking. It’s learning how to handle anxiety so it doesn’t take over — giving you more space to focus, engage, and feel like yourself again.

  • Untangle yourself from mental spirals

  • Make decisions with more confidence

  • Face uncertainty without over-preparing every step

  • Be fully present in conversations

  • Do the things anxiety has kept you from trying

  • Sleep better, feel lighter, and have energy for what you enjoy

Hi, I’m Samara — the kind of therapist who spots the small things.

I pay attention to what people often miss: the sighs, subtle tension, the thoughts that slip by half-noticed.

I’m reflective, patient, and curious, and I like letting people find their own answers.

I guide with steadiness and a little humor, without claiming to be the expert on your life.
