Therapists in 94027
After nearly two decades in clinical practice, my own experiences with learning differences, co occurring challenges, and medical issues reshaped how I understand healing. I came to appreciate an approach grounded in the present, focused on solutions, growth, and meaningful change rather than endless exploration of the past. I found that insight alone does not create relief. My work is goal oriented, practical, and collaborative. I help clients identify patterns, overcome obstacles, and build lasting change so they can regain direction, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose in their lives and relationships moving forward.

Deciding to begin psychotherapy is one of the kindest and most important choices you can make for yourself. It can be a turning point in your life, but it can also feel scary to talk to someone you don't know well. I work with individuals and couples, providing a warm, safe, confidential environment where I will listen carefully and where we will work together to understand and resolve the issues you are struggling with—both in terms of how they affect your current life and in terms of how they became issues in the first place.

Have you noticed that your past tends to show up in ways you didn't expect? Maybe you're turning to alcohol or substances more than you'd like, finding yourself easily frustrated by others, or stuck in the same relationship patterns no matter how hard you try. When life feels out of control, it can be hard to understand why you keep reacting, escaping, or shutting down, even when part of you knows something needs to change.

New experiences change us. Therapy offers a space to explore how the past can live in us quietly, showing up in our habits, our relationships, and in our bodies, and to bring these things into awareness so that we can intentionally begin to do things differently. I believe that opportunities for growth and transformation are everywhere, and that a major part of the work of therapy is recognizing and opening ourselves to these possibilities. With a background in movement practices, I pay close attention to how we inhabit our bodies, and see present-moment embodiment, ease, and joy as important parts of therapeutic work.

One opening available as of Sept 2026, for either in-person or virtual therapy.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, high-functioning, and a little tired of performing that way. They're navigating demanding careers, significant life transitions, or losses that haven't had anywhere to land. And what makes us a good fit is if they're ready to look at what's underneath. I work with adults and late adolescents, including folks in their 20s and 30s, fellow therapists and psychiatrists, and teenagers. I also work with people in high-pressure fields, particularly medical and psychiatric professionals.

Welcome! I work with individuals who have reached a point where the ways they've learned to cope no longer fit the life they want to build. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, burnout, chronic illness, creative blocks, or major life transitions, but are deeply invested in understanding themselves and reconnecting with life. Together, we can explore patterns in your life with curiosity rather than judgment, helping you develop a steadier relationship with yourself so you can move through life and relationships with greater clarity, resilience, and connection.

Accepting NEW couples and individuals (in-person services in SF, teletherapy throughout CA).
Ready for a change? Caught in a cycle of uncertainty and low self-worth? It can feel like nothing will improve. There are patterns in your relationship with yourself, and with others, that seem fixed (e.g. people-pleasing, perfectionism, defensiveness, codependency, imposter syndrome, feeling unseen or misunderstood). The louder your negative self-talk becomes, the further your goals seem to slip out of reach. But this pattern doesn’t need to continue. You can break this cycle and build something new – you just need the right support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
