Anxiety and panic
The racing mind at 3 am, the dread before meetings, a body that won’t settle.
When the water goes out, you can see what’s there.
Lowtide is a small therapy practice in Long Beach for adults and couples. In person a block from the beach, or by video anywhere in California.

What people bring in
Match me with a clinicianBurnout and work
When the job takes everything and you can’t remember what you used to like.
Grief and loss
A death, a divorce, a move, a diagnosis. Grief at its own pace, not a schedule.
Couples
The fight that keeps repeating, the distance that crept in, a choice you can’t make together.
Life changes
New parent, new city, new sobriety, new decade. Big shifts, even the good ones.
Your first session, minute by minute
Not knowing what happens is half the dread. Here’s the whole 50 minutes. The water comes in as you get into it, then goes back out so you leave steady.
- 10 to 10 min
Settle in
Privacy and its limits, how sessions work, and any questions about us.
- 210 to 30 min
What brings you
Your words, your order. Nothing you have to have figured out first.
- 330 to 45 min
What you want different
What a better month would look like, so there’s something to aim at.
- 445 to 50 min
Decide together
Whether we’re a fit, how often to meet, and one small thing to try.
Two quiet rooms by the water
No waiting room full of people. You come up the stairs, the door is open, and the kettle is on.
- A block from the beach, Long Beach
