Common Anxiety Issues I Address in Online Therapy

Life often brings unexpected challenges, and seeking support is a courageous step toward overcoming them. At Suddenly Normal Psychotherapy, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety through compassionate care and personalized online therapy. My virtual therapy services are designed to support you no matter where you are in California, making professional help accessible and convenient.



Here are some of the common anxiety-related challenges I address through online therapy sessions. While this list highlights many areas, it’s not exhaustive, so I encourage you to reach out and discuss your specific situation with me.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) involves persistent and excessive worry about various aspects of daily life. Individuals with GAD often feel on edge, experience difficulty concentrating, and may suffer from physical symptoms such as headaches or muscle tension.

Panic Attacks

Panic attacks are sudden episodes of intense fear or discomfort that can be overwhelming and debilitating. They often come without warning and may include symptoms like rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, and dizziness. 

Social Anxiety

Social Anxiety involves an intense fear of social situations, often causing avoidance and distress. It can affect relationships, work, and daily life. I help you build confidence by addressing the root causes and teaching practical skills for navigating social interactions.

Phobias

Phobias are irrational fears of specific objects, situations, or activities that lead to avoidance behavior. These fears can significantly disrupt your life. Through gradual exposure therapy and cognitive techniques, I help you confront and manage your phobias, allowing you to regain control over your life.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) involves unwanted and intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that lead to repetitive behaviors (compulsions) aimed at reducing anxiety. 

Health Anxiety

Health Anxiety, often referred to as hypochondria, involves excessive worry about having a serious illness despite little or no medical evidence. This constant fear can lead to frequent doctor visits and a preoccupation with health concerns. 

Stress Management

Chronic stress can worsen anxiety and lead to burnout. My stress management therapy teaches techniques like mindfulness, relaxation, and time management to help you maintain a healthier, balanced lifestyle.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) arises after trauma, causing flashbacks, nightmares, and severe anxiety. My online therapy helps you process trauma, reduce symptoms, and regain control through specialized approaches.
