Are you First-Gen BIPOC or Queer? Hi! I’m Ligia (she/her/ella), an Anxiety Therapist in Los Angeles, CA and I'm here for you. Maybe you’ve always been the one who keeps the peace, take care of everyone else, or avoids conflict to stay safe. Maybe you’ve felt like you’ve lost touch with your own needs, values, or truth. Have you started to wonder who you are underneath all the roles you’ve taken on in putting the needs of others before your own. If you're ready to reconnect with your voice, values, and needs therapy can be a safe space to explore those questions without shame and feel more grounded with yourself.

I help adults who feel anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or disconnected with themselves. I specialize in helping them navigate people-pleasing, identity struggles, and cultural/family pressure. Managing anxiety/burnout, questioning around gender/sexuality/identity, setting boundaries, healing from family dynamics or generational trauma.

Finding the right anxiety therapist in Los Angeles and across California who respects your unique experiences is essential to your healing journey. Together, we'll help you move from uncertainty and self-doubt to feeling grounded in your sense of self and clarity in making choices for yourself. Contact me today for anxiety therapy in Los Angeles California.
