About anxiety therapy for people in Concord

Everyone listed on this page holds a licence to practise in California and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a licence is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in California regardless of how far away they are. Someone in Concord can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

2,457 therapists match this page, all of whom name anxiety among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.

What to compare

  • Credential. LMFT, LCSW and LPCC are different training routes to the same licensed practice. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
  • Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
  • What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
  • Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
  • Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.

How online sessions work

Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.

Therapy in Concord

Concord has a population of about 125,410. Local in-person availability varies and waiting lists are common, which is part of why state-wide online practice has grown. Nothing on this page depends on a therapist being near you.

Common questions

How do I choose a therapist on this list if I want help with panic attacks?

Look for therapists who explicitly mention panic or panic disorder in their profiles, and note their therapeutic approaches. Therapists who use exposure, interoceptive exposure, or CBT for panic often describe those methods. Also check how they work with crisis planning and whether they discuss skills for grounding and breathing. Use initial contact to ask about experience with panic specifically.

Can I switch therapists easily if the one I choose isn’t a good fit?

Yes. If a therapist isn’t a good fit, you can stop and try someone else on the directory. Read profiles for different approaches and specialties first, then contact a few to compare communication style, session format, and therapeutic methods. It’s normal to try more than one therapist before finding the right match for your needs.

How should I compare therapists’ approaches to generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)?

Compare how therapists describe treating GAD: check for cognitive-behavioral strategies, worry management, mindfulness, and problem-solving techniques. Note whether they address sleep, health anxiety, or co-occurring depression. Look at session structure and whether they offer skills-focused work versus longer-term exploratory therapy. Use initial messages to ask how they tailor treatment for chronic worry.
