Georgia Panagiotou, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Starting therapy can feel exciting and scary at the same time, I’m here to make sure this transition is meaningful and helpful. I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I take a humanistic approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs and meeting you where you are. My approach I use talk therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your unique needs, I may adapt my approach to include practices like mindfulness and medication. My focus Have you been struggling with anxious thoughts and anticipatory grief? I work with adults who are managing anxiety, life transitions, and those navigating difficult decisions with end of life. Whether you’re working through trauma, building coping skills, or exploring your personal goals, I’ll work with you to achieve those goals. My communication style I foster transparency, to create a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began with a deep desire for genuine and authentic connection. As my second career and after Graduate School, I had the opportunity to work in hospice helping patients and families navigate end of life journeys. This was the most humbling time of life and feel honored to have been a part of my patients most vulnerable time. My goals for you I believe that therapy is team work. Together, we’ll identify and set goals that matter to you whether they focus on improving relationships, managing anxiety or another personal objective.
