Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Find Relief from Anxiety with In-Person Support
​
Anxiety can feel like your mind never turns off. You might spend hours overthinking decisions, worrying about worst-case scenarios, or feeling a constant sense of dread you can’t explain. Anxiety can show up as racing heart, shallow breathing, tension, or restlessness that makes it hard to relax or sleep.
​
If anxiety is making your daily life harder, whether it’s at school, at work, or as a new parent, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer in-person anxiety therapy near San Jose at my Campbell office, specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for anxiety.
Why Choose In-Person Anxiety Therapy in Campbell?
Online therapy can be a great option for many, but some clients find that being in the same room with their therapist provides deeper support and focus.
​
A Dedicated Space for Processing Your Emotions
My office offers a quiet, private environment designed for you to slow down and process without distraction. For clients whose anxiety feels heightened at home or on screens all day, having a separate space can make therapy more grounding.
​
Working Through Anxiety in Real Time
During in-person sessions, I can notice subtle cues, like body language, tone, or physical signs of anxiety, that are harder to catch virtually. This can make interventions more immediate and effective.
​
Convenient South Bay Location
My Campbell office is centrally located for clients across the South Bay and Silicon Valley, including San Jose, Los Gatos, Saratoga, Cupertino, and nearby areas. Many of my clients are professionals, students, and new parents who appreciate having therapy close to home or work.
My Approach to Anxiety Treatment
Anxiety shows up in many forms: constant worry, panic attacks, perfectionism, social fears, or physical symptoms like stomach issues or racing heart. Regardless of how it appears, the cycle is often the same — anxiety builds, you try to avoid or control it, and in the long run, it gets stronger.
​
That’s where therapy can help.
​
Using CBT to Break the Cycle
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective treatments for anxiety. In therapy, you’ll learn to:
-
Identify unhelpful thought patterns
-
Challenge anxious predictions with evidence
-
Reduce avoidance and safety behaviors that keep anxiety going
-
Build healthier coping strategies
​
Exposure-Based Techniques for Anxiety
For many clients, I also use exposure-based strategies, where you gradually face the situations you’ve been avoiding, whether that’s giving a presentation, driving, or even sitting with a racing heart, so your brain learns what you are capable of.
​
Tailored to Your Life Stage
-
Students: Balancing academic pressure, social anxiety, or decision-making stress
-
New Parents: Navigating postpartum anxiety, sleep deprivation, and fears about your baby’s safety

What In-Person Anxiety Therapy Looks Like
Here’s what you can expect if we work together:
​
-
First Session: We’ll talk through your symptoms, history, and goals. I’ll ask questions to better understand how anxiety shows up for you.
-
Treatment Plan: I’ll create a personalized plan using CBT and other evidence-based tools, designed specifically for your concerns.
-
Ongoing Sessions: Each week, we’ll practice strategies in session, like challenging anxious thoughts, grounding techniques, or exposure exercises, so you feel confident using them on your own.
-
Hybrid Flexibility: While most clients attend in person, you always have the option to switch to online sessions when needed.
Working with Caitlyn
As a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety and OCD, I bring years of training and focused experience to this work. My private practice is intentionally small, which means you receive individualized, thoughtful care rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
​
-
Specialized Expertise: I focus almost exclusively on anxiety, OCD, and postpartum concerns. Read more about my speciality training here.
-
Evidence-Based Care: I use approaches backed by research—not just “talk therapy.”
-
Local Understanding: Having lived and worked in the Bay Area, I understand the unique stressors of Silicon Valley life—academic competition, high-pressure careers, parenting without enough support—and tailor therapy with these realities in mind.
