Anxiety & Depression Therapy in California —Inner Wave
Gentle guidance through emotional overwhelm, uncertainty, and stuckness.
Healing Begins with Being Understood

Whether you’re experiencing persistent worry, low mood, overwhelm, or a general sense of dissatisfaction, our compassionate therapists provide practical strategies tailored to help you manage these challenges and regain balance.
