Anne Federico, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Anne!

If life feels overwhelming or you've lost direction, change is possible. Whether navigating anxiety, depression, stress, or self-doubt, therapy offers clarity and confidence. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to take steps toward a balanced and fulfilling life.

My focus

I specialize in working with adults and young adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, stress, relationship struggles, self-esteem concerns, grief and loss, anger management, family and relationship issues, burnout, behavioral issues, codependency, and coping skills.

My approach

My approach starts with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and challenge negative thought patterns. I incorporate Person-Centered Therapy to create a non-judgmental, empathetic space where you feel valued. I tailor sessions to your unique needs using evidence-based techniques.

My communication style

I provide care, understanding, compassion, and empathy in every session. I believe in balancing support with honesty—sometimes that means delivering hard truths, but always in a way that is respectful and meant to encourage growth. My goal is to help you gain insight, build confidence, and develop skills that will serve you long after therapy ends.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for mental health started at a young age. Growing up, I was introduced to different ways of living, which helped me realize that people's lives and experiences can vary greatly. My personal experiences with loss and grief, and the support that helped me navigate those challenges, ultimately led me to pursue a path of helping others.

My goals for you

Therapy is a space for growth, reflection, and action. My goal is to equip you with the skills and confidence to manage life's challenges in a way that aligns with your personal values and aspirations. I believe that goals in therapy should be realistic, measurable, and challenging, helping you move toward lasting change.

Our first session

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We will discuss your concerns, goals, and what you hope to gain from therapy. I want to ensure you feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. If we determine that we are a good fit, we will schedule additional sessions to continue working toward your goals.
