Couples therapy, marriage counseling, & pscyhotherapy
in San Francisco, Berkeley, & Oakland, California
Relationships are wonderful!
They are wonderfully difficult and are wonderfully fulfilling. Relationships are where we receive our emotional nourishment. When they are good, we feel supported, loved, and held. When they are not good, we feel hurt, neglected, alone, and uncared for.
How is it possible that we can have both of these experiences with the same person? This is so, because into relationship we bring both our wonderfully abundant love and our wonderfully immense need.
If you are struggling in relationship, we can help. We will begin with presence and communication, regain openness and intimacy, and establish the flow where love and need come harmoniously together.

In addition to our academic and clinical training, we have each undergone specialized training in couples therapy and areas of individual psychotherapy.
