Individual & Couples Therapy in San Francisco
I work with adults and couples who want to understand themselves more clearly, feel less stuck, and build more connected relationships. In-person therapy in San Francisco and online therapy throughout California.
Therapy for individuals and couples
Individual Therapy
You may be caught in worry or self-criticism, struggling with closeness, or going through the motions without feeling satisfied. A transition may have left you questioning what comes next.
Individual therapy offers time to make sense of these experiences, recognize recurring patterns, and develop more trust in your own feelings and choices.
Couples Therapy
You may keep having the same arguments, feel unheard, or notice a growing distance between you. Perhaps trust has been damaged and you are unsure how to begin repairing it.
Couples therapy helps you examine the cycle you get caught in, understand each other’s experience, and practice ways of communicating that allow for more connection.
Making sense of what keeps you stuck
Sometimes you know what you want to change but find yourself responding in familiar ways. You might agree to something you don’t want, question yourself long after a conversation ends, or pull away just when you want to feel closer.
My approach is thoughtful and collaborative. We’ll look closely at what happens in those moments, how earlier experiences may shape your reactions, and what matters to you now. Understanding those connections can give us a starting point for trying something different.
Focused support for relationship decisions
I also offer two distinct forms of counseling for couples at particular points in their relationship:
-
Premarital counseling uses a structured assessment and conversations to explore expectations, communication, and the life you want to build together.
-
Discernment counseling is a short-term process for partners who are unsure whether to continue their relationship and want to consider their options carefully.
