But GAD isn’t the only form of anxiety. Anxiety can also show up as panic disorder, illness anxiety (hypochondria), OCD, and other stress-response disorders.
We’re so confident in our extraordinary therapists that we guarantee you’ll love your match – or your money back.
At My LA Therapy, our highly-vetted Anxiety experts are selected not only for their clinical acumen but for who they are.
Panic attacks involve repeated episodes of sudden, intense fear accompanied by powerful physical sensations — even when there is no immediate threat.
Panic attacks can feel so severe that they resemble a heart attack, which can be deeply frightening. While some people experience panic during high stress, frequent panic attacks often signal unresolved emotional or nervous-system patterns that need professional care.
If panic attacks are recurring — or if you constantly fear having another one — working with an experienced Los Angeles anxiety therapist who specialize in panic attacks can help you regain control.
What was once called Hypochondria is now known as “Illness Anxiety Disorder.” Someone with this condition becomes excessively concerned they have a serious medical illness—even with no medical evidence to support it.
Illness Anxiety Disorder often develops after major stress, childhood trauma, or the loss of a loved one to illness. With proper anxiety therapy in Los Angeles, meaningful relief is absolutely possible.
At My LA Therapy, our warm and experienced therapists specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, & relationships.

I am blown away! I don’t write testimonials, unless I have been extremely moved by something. I was blessed to work with Brooke on a single session, and before this I was in therapy on and off with multiple therapists for the last 20 years of my life. Brooke was able to do more in one session than many years of work with my previous therapist. She has the true gift of great insight and compassion while also getting straight to the heart of your blind spots and unconscious issues in a way that has truly changed my life.

There are people who are good at their work there are people like Brooke: who are born to do it. I cannot recommend Brooke more highly. I can only imagine where I would be today if I had started working with her years ago. From the beginning of our session, she knew exactly what tools and questions that would work for my particular psychology and my personal experience. No other therapist has been able to do that or anything close.
What I also really appreciate from our session is Brooke's ability to go directly to the source of the issue while also keeping a very gentle and kind energy with me. I felt very seen, understood, and supported. Everything and more that I could have ever asked for from a therapist. I have a severe trauma history and complex issues she was able to immediately identify and help. If she could help me, I know she can help you too.

You did more in 45 minutes than my last therapist did in a year.

With your help, I've finally started to understand that while my vivid imagination often wants to create terrifying monsters under the bed, in a lot of cases those monsters are nothing more than a heap of decidedly less-terrifying laundry I've avoided for too long that just needs to be aired out and put away. Which is definitely a lot easier than monster slaying. Thank you for shedding light in the dark places I was too afraid to face alone.

I am extremely fortunate to work with Sydney, who is helping me create real internal change. The talent to listen well is Hall of Fame stuff, and she has that. She then follows with questions, strategies that are organic to the moment. I have come to believe that deep, radical, if occasionally deeply painful change ... and, then, healing can happen. I'm just at the lip of that last part - but would not have gotten there, AT ALL, without Sydney
