About anxiety therapy for people in Torrance

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 Torrance 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 Torrance

Torrance has a population of about 147,067. 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 for anxiety from this list?

Look for therapists who mention the specific type of anxiety you’re experiencing, such as panic, social anxiety, or health anxiety. Compare their stated approaches (CBT, ACT, EMDR, etc.), experience with your age group, and whether they note session structure. Use profiles to form a shortlist and contact therapists to ask about their approach to anxiety and what a typical session looks like.

Can I see a therapist who treats both anxiety and related issues like insomnia or OCD?

Yes. Many therapists treat anxiety along with related conditions such as insomnia, OCD, or panic disorder. Check each profile for listed specialties and integrated approaches. If a profile is unclear, message the therapist to confirm how they address co-occurring issues and whether they combine techniques or focus on one presenting problem per course of therapy.

Do these therapists meet with new clients in Torrance or only existing clients?

Therapists listed here are licensed in California and available to clients in Torrance. Whether they are accepting new clients varies by individual. Use the profile contact information to ask about new client intake, wait times, and suitability for your needs. The page does not indicate current openings or guarantee new client availability.
