Step 2.
We’ll gently identify how anxiety shows up in your daily life. Exploring patterns of racing thoughts, people-pleasing, panic, or perfectionism. Then we’ll connect those patterns to past experiences, beliefs, & nervous system responses.
Step 3.
You’ll learn grounding tools, emotion regulation strategies, and mindset shifts to help calm your body and mind. Over time, you’ll build more self-trust, reduce anxiety, and feel more in control of your life.
MEET YOUR ANXIETY TREATMENT THERAPIST
STEPHANIE HARIMOTO, LMFT
Hi, I’m Stephanie, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who helps adults navigate anxiety with compassion, clarity, and evidence-based support. Whether your anxiety stems from old patterns, high expectations, or the pressure to hold it all together - you don’t have to carry it alone.
I’ve spent the past several years supporting people who feel stuck in overthinking, burnout, and self-doubt, even though they’re doing everything “right” on the outside.
Here’s why I’m passionate about this work: I know how anxiety can make it feel like you’re never doing enough, like you have to earn rest or prove your worth to feel okay. I believe you deserve more than just coping. You deserve to feel calm, grounded, and at home in your own life. I’m here to help you get there.

Anxiety can stem from a mix of things: past experiences, family patterns, ongoing stress, perfectionism, or even unprocessed trauma. Sometimes it feels like it came out of nowhere. In therapy, we’ll work to understand the roots and help you find more peace in the present.
