Why Performance Anxiety Happens — Even to High Achievers
You don’t have to be a beginner to experience performance anxiety. In fact, the more successful you become, the greater the stakes often feel. Common triggers include:
High-pressure work environments where one mistake can have lasting consequences
Public speaking or presentations in front of peers, investors, or audiences
Auditions, stage performances, or media appearances where judgment feels immediate
Leadership responsibilities that require constant decision-making under scrutiny
In Beverly Hills, many clients tell us their anxiety feels like a mismatch — outwardly, they’re composed and capable, but inside, they’re battling racing thoughts, tense muscles, or fear of failure.
Signs You May Benefit from Performance Anxiety Therapy
Performance anxiety can affect more than your career — it can impact your relationships, self-esteem, and physical health. You might notice:
Racing heartbeat before a meeting or performance
Trouble concentrating or recalling prepared material
Physical tension, sweaty palms, or nausea
Perfectionism and over-preparing that lead to burnout
Avoidance of opportunities you’d otherwise want to take
When these symptoms start limiting your potential, it’s time to seek tailored help.
How Therapy Can Help You Regain Your Edge

2. Mindfulness and Somatic Techniques
Develops the ability to stay present, regulate breathing, and release physical tension.
3. Visualization and Exposure Exercises
Prepares you mentally for real-life performance situations in a safe, controlled way.
4. Confidence-Building Practices
