Anxiety therapy in San Francisco that helps professionals with anxiety/trauma, depression, and dating anxiety.

Most days you can pretend that everything is ok--that you don’t need therapy for anxiety—especially if you keep busy.

Then there are these moments of panic where all of your emotions hit you and you can’t find a way to feel better.  Maybe you drag yourself out of bed to go to work and have anxiety attacks where you cry in the bathroom stall.  You try to keep pushing the thoughts or memories that overwhelm you away, to no avail. 

It doesn’t happen all the time so you can usually tell yourself and everyone else things are fine.  But if you stopped for a minute and looked at reality you would notice how unhappy you are with yourself and who you are.  Every move you make seems like a reminder of something you did wrong or could do better.  

It feels like these moments happen OUT OF NOWHERE and a part of you feels like you are going to have to live your life with these intense feelings and memories coming up unexpectedly and just having to grin and bear it until the feeling passes. 

Or maybe these overwhelming feelings of anxiety and dread only come up when you are dating or when you are close friends with someone.  You are usually confident and happy in your life but anxiety eats away at you when you get close to someone. 

It doesn’t have to be this way. You can reclaim your life.

Your body was MADE to feel and EXPRESS emotions. And, if you don't learn how to identify, respond to, and express those emotions regularly- they will come out- in ways that often feel out of control. 

My name is Lisa Manca and I specialize in working with anxiety/trauma, dating anxiety, and online therapy.

My approach will help you learn how to deeply connect with your body, identify what is happening, and move through it with more ease and grace so your body has to send you those big signals less and less. 

We won't just TALK about what is happening or what has happened to you, we will create new routines, patterns, and strategies that feel GOOD in your body and that work in your life. Our sessions will get you moving through life with more ease (literally), dancing (sometimes), and getting really clear on creating a new way of moving through life and relationships. 

Through therapy with me, you will find a deep sense of safety and connection to yourself and your body.   Your emotions will no longer be the enemy and you will accept who you are and be able to give compassion to yourself.  You will connect with yourself, live in your body and FEEL the emotions you were once so afraid to face.
