If you have tried therapy before without the results you hoped for, you may need a more targeted, effective approach. Over the past 15 years of my practice as a clinical psychologist, earning your trust and helping you establish a secure, empowering baseline for your care has been a profound privilege. As a former instructor at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and a provider at the UCLA Insomnia clinic, my goal is to provide more than just a space to talk—I offer the specialized, gold-standard steps necessary to create measurable, lasting change. At my practice, YCBT Services, I focus on working with adolescents, adults, and seniors who feel stuck despite their best efforts, specifically targeting generalized anxiety, social anxiety, OCD, panic disorders, and chronic insomnia. By addressing the underlying triggers that keep you on high alert, I am fiercely committed to helping you move beyond surface-level coping to reclaim your peace of mind.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in San Jose

Searching for therapists in San Jose starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider profiles can show whether someone uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect from sessions.

San Jose has a broad mental health care market, with therapists practicing across neighborhoods and nearby communities like Almaden, Campbell, and Cupertino. In-person therapy may work well if you want an office near home, work, or school. Virtual therapy can add more scheduling options, especially if commute time or a busy calendar shapes your search. Before booking, review each therapist’s availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their communication style in their bio.

Therapy in San Jose can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, check your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
