About
As a first-generation American of Latin and European descent who identifies as a transgender woman and has experienced personal trauma and loss, I have a unique understanding of the numerous factors that impact our lives and how having simple discussions about one's feelings with others has a positive impact on our mental health.
My name is Marisol Seide, I am an associate clinical social worker with 7 years of experience. I'm passionate about helping clients achieve their therapeutic goals & maintain their overall well-being. I received my Master’s of Social Work from San Diego State University after attending Sacramento State, where I received my Bachelor’s of Social Work with a minor in Art Education and Criminal Justice. I am a transgender woman who identifies openly as part of the disability community. I specialize in assisting clients who struggle with anxiety, adjustments, depression, gender identity, relationships, and life transitions.
My lived experience expanded my horizons by providing me first-hand knowledge of how to connect and empathize with others. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe space for you to discover yourself by validating your presence, learning about you, and reframing the narrative(s) to empower healing.
Self-determination is key to maintaining your mental health and well-being. You took the pivotal step of coming to therapy by acknowledging and accepting that you need help to improve your mental health and well-being, which is a huge achievement. I want to validate that by assisting you to reach your goals.

Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Huntington Beach, CA can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day anxiety or your anxiety disorder.
Anxiety therapy involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Thriveworks Huntington Beach therapists will then work with you to determine where your anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
One of the best ways to deal with anxiety is to learn about your own anxiety: your symptoms, what triggers it, and what coping mechanisms have been effective in the past. When you learn what your anxiety is tied to, it can help you be mindful of what’s really happening as well as prevent and mitigate symptoms by processing and working through the issue in therapy. Other strategies that have been shown to help manage anxiety are meditation, challenging anxious thoughts, exercising, and journaling.
Common symptoms of anxiety include:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be incredibly effective in treating anxiety and anxiety disorders. Other effective techniques include exposure therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR therapy.
Anxiety therapy is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability. We suggest choosing the option that best suits your needs.
On average, people can tend to attend 15 to 20 session of anxiety therapy (five or more months). However, this number is heavily dependent on the type of anxiety that’s being treated and its severity, with many choosing to attend anxiety therapy for a longer period of time to ensure its effectiveness long-term.
Yes, it is worth going to therapy for anxiety. If you are struggling with regular anxious thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety disorder, you should seek expert anxiety help.
Anxiety can be overwhelming and interfere with daily life, but it is highly treatable with the right support. The licensed anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Huntington Beach, CA, are dedicated to diagnosing and treating anxiety with compassion and expertise.
They can help you understand the origins of your anxiety and teach you effective coping skills to manage and prevent future episodes. Call our office today at (562) 330-4185.
