Photo of William R Taboas, Psychologist, PhD
I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in OCD treatment, anxiety therapy, and depression counseling for adults seeking meaningful and lasting change. I work with clients struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), panic attacks, generalized anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, depression, anger management concerns, chronic stress, communication difficulties, and relationship issues. I help those who feel stuck in repetitive patterns of worry, self-doubt, or emotional overwhelm but are motivated to learn practical, evidence-based strategies to regain control of their lives.
My practice focuses on mood and anxiety disorders using evidence-based therapeutic approaches including CBT, ERP, DBT, and ACT. These evidence-based treatments help clients reduce intrusive thoughts, manage panic symptoms, improve emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and build resilience.
If you’re looking for a California-based psychologist specializing in OCD, anxiety disorders, depression, or stress management, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Therapy with me is collaborative, authentic, and focused on real-world results. When you’re ready to begin therapy and create meaningful change, I invite you to reach out to schedule a free call.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. During initial sessions, we get to identify and challenge distorted thinking patterns and gradually start reducing avoidance. Over time, we integrate stress reduction techniques, mindfulness techniques to live in the moment, and look at core values to develop short-term and long-term goals for therapy.
