About author(s)


Dr. Annika Okamoto works as the Clinical Director at Oceanside Clinics in Santa Barbara, California, which is also designated as the regional clinic for the National Social Anxiety Center. She teaches courses in therapy interventions, cultural processes, and community mental health in the Clinical Psychology Master’s program at Antioch University, Santa Barbara. Dr. Okamoto serves as the Past President of the Santa Barbara County Psychological Association for 2025. Her experience includes working in various community mental health clinics such as UCLA-Semel and Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, and working with unhoused, frequently incarcerated, and involuntarily hospitalized populations. Dr. Okamoto brings a relational and trauma-informed lens to her editorial work, grounded in a deep understanding of how emotions, cultural issues, and power dynamics shape therapy and the therapeutic alliance. She is a strong advocate for approaches that are both depathologizing and empowering. Before her career in the United States, Dr. Okamoto led the psychology department at Viljandi Hospital in Estonia. She has worked in mental health settings for over 25 years as a therapist, supervisor, researcher, trainer, and mentor.

In collaboration with the Cognitive Behavior Therapy Research Unit, Dr. Okamoto has published several papers on the therapeutic relationship, alliance, and rupture repair in CBT (e.g., Okamoto et al., 2019, 2021; Impala et al., 2023) and the 2019 article received the APA Top Downloaded Paper Award across all 89 APA journals, out of more than 4,500 articles.
