What should I look for when choosing a marriage therapist in Palo Alto?

Start with licensure: make sure they're actually licensed in Palo Alto. Then check whether they treat what you're dealing with, whether that's communication problems, anxiety, or something more specific. After that, look at insurance and cost, and decide if you want online sessions or in-person.
