Welcome to the web site for S.F. Bay Area Therapy, the therapy practice of Jill T. Levitt, Ph.D.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Los Altos, CA, specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy. In my work as a psychologist, I assist adults and adolescents who seek help in overcoming anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship problems.

I have received extensive training in cognitive behavioral therapy, a form of psychotherapy that focuses on helping people modify their thoughts and behaviors in order to bring about meaningful change.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is rooted in the "here and now." It is a goal-directed approach that is collaborative between client and therapist. This type of therapy is widely regarded as an effective and efficient form of psychotherapy. In particular, cognitive behavioral therapy is the most effective treatment for many forms of anxiety and depression.

In my experience as a therapist I have seen that anxiety and mood disorders are very treatable. Often people experience significant relief from symptoms and meaningful improvements in the quality of their lives in just a few months.

I hope you find this site to be a helpful resource. Please call me at (650) 468-6646 to learn more about my practice or to set up an initial consultation.
