Psychotherapy

Therapy that fits the person, not a template

Psychotherapy is a collaborative relationship focused on your goals. Sessions may explore patterns in thoughts, feelings, and relationships, build practical skills, and make room for questions that don’t have quick answers.

Because Dr. Anglin also provides psychological assessment under the supervision of Youssef Nakhla, PsyD, testing can be added when questions come up.

Who you’ll see: Therapy is provided by Mason Anglin, PsyD, a Registered Psychological Associate (PSB94029529) working under the supervision of Youssef Nakhla, PsyD (PSY 36042), at Cogniscribe Psychology. Dr. Anglin is also a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 121211).

Whole-person care

Room for the bigger questions

Some people come in with a specific problem. Others come because life feels off in a way that’s hard to name. Both are good reasons to start.

Approaches

Approaches Dr. Anglin may draw on

The approach is chosen with you, based on your goals, history, and what fits clinically. Many people benefit from a blend.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

Practical tools for noticing and shifting patterns in thinking and behavior that keep you stuck.

Exposure and response prevention (ERP)

A form of cognitive behavioral therapy commonly used for OCD. See OCD therapy.

Humanistic & existential

A relationship-centered approach that takes your experience, values, and questions about meaning seriously. See existential therapy.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

An approach to couples work that focuses on emotional bonds and the patterns partners get caught in. See couples therapy.

Gottman Method

A structured approach to couples therapy focused on friendship, conflict management, and shared meaning.

Child- and family-focused work

Age-appropriate therapy for kids and teens, with parents involved. See child therapy.

Assessment-informed care

When questions about attention, learning, mood, or diagnosis come up, testing can clarify what’s going on and guide therapy.

Is this for you?

People often reach out about

  • Anxiety, worry, or stress that won’t settle
  • Low mood, loss of motivation, or feeling stuck
  • Big emotions that are hard to manage or recover from
  • Life transitions, loss, or identity questions
  • Relationship stress and patterns that keep repeating

How it works

What to expect from therapy

Screening & benefits check

Start the short screening form. We review it, check your insurance benefits for therapy, and reach out about next steps.

First session

We talk about what brings you in, your history, and your goals, and decide together whether we are a good fit.

Ongoing therapy

Regular sessions in Fair Oaks or by telehealth, with goals revisited along the way so therapy stays useful.

Insurance

Using insurance for therapy

Many plans include behavioral health benefits for therapy. Coverage, copays, and session limits vary, and therapy benefits are checked separately from testing, so we verify your plan before your first session.
