Online Therapy in California for Women Navigating Dating, Anxiety & Attachment
If you overthink every text, replay conversations in your head at night, or keep ending up in relationships that feel confusing or one-sided, you are not broken and you are not "too much." These patterns often trace back to attachment: how you learned early on what love, safety, and closeness feel like.
I'm Lauren Zamora, an LMFT 143208. I provide online therapy to adult women anywhere in California, through secure video sessions from wherever you feel most comfortable.
Who this therapy is for:
My clients are often driven, thoughtful women who are successful in many areas of life and still feel stuck in love. You might relate if you:
Feel anxious when someone pulls away, goes quiet, or takes a while to text back
Overthink, over-analyze, or second-guess yourself in dating and relationships
Keep choosing partners who are emotionally unavailable or inconsistent
Struggle to trust yourself, or to believe you deserve consistency
Carry childhood experiences that still shape how you show up in relationships
Feel anxious, on edge, or like you cannot relax even when things are going well
How I work:
My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I draw on attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and inner child work to help you understand where your patterns came from, and to build new ways of responding that feel steadier and safer.
In practice, our work often includes:
Understanding your attachment style and how it shows up in dating and relationships
Processing childhood experiences that still affect how you see yourself and others
Building practical tools to calm anxiety and break the overthinking cycle
Strengthening self-trust, boundaries, and your ability to recognize what healthy feels like
Therapy is not a quick fix, and I can't promise forced outcomes, such as a particular relationship status. What I can offer is a consistent, judgment-free space and real tools to help you change how you relate to yourself and others.
What to expect:
Free 15-minute consult. We talk about what brings you in, I explain my approach, and you can ask anything.
First sessions. We explore your story and what you want from therapy, then set goals that feel meaningful to you.
Weekly 50-minute video sessions. A mix of processing, new perspective, and practical tools or homework if desired.
Sessions take place on a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You need to be physically located in California.
H2: Fees and insurance
Individual therapy is $250 for a 50-minute session. I don't contract with insurance companies. Private pay allows greater privacy and flexibility, and keeps your care between you and me rather than driven by insurance requirements.
If you have a PPO plan, you may be able to get reimbursed for part of the cost through out-of-network benefits. I work with Mentaya, a free tool that helps you estimate your reimbursement and file claims. Check your benefits here.
H2: Serving women across California
I work with women throughout the state, including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and the Bay Area, Sacramento, San Jose, Orange County, the Inland Empire, and the Central Coast. If you live anywhere in California, we can work together from home.
H2: Frequently asked questions
Do you offer therapy outside California? My therapy services are available only to adults who are physically located in California at the time of session. If you are outside California, my coaching services may be an option. Coaching is not therapy.
Is online therapy as effective as in-person? Research supports online therapy as equally effective and comparable to in-person for many concerns, including anxiety. If you are unsure, we can talk through it on the consult call.
What is attachment-based therapy? It focuses on how early relationships shape the way you connect, trust, and handle closeness as an adult. By understanding your patterns, we can build more secure ways of relating.
Do you take insurance? I don't participate in insurance plans, but I can provide documentation if you want to seek out-of-network reimbursement.
If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, call or text 988 or go to your nearest emergency room.
