Life Coaching Therapists in South of Market (SoMa), San Francisco, CA

The person you commit to has the power to make your life better or, in some unfortunate cases, worse. That’s why Premarital counseling is so important: This isn’t meant to scare you, but it also isn’t hyperbole. While getting serious with someone is fun, it’s also a meaningful process that you want to go well because the stakes (your futures) are so high. I can help you and your partner sort through what you need to make sure you’re the right fit for lasting love. First, we’ll review your marriage goals and discuss the results of 3 industry-leading assessments designed to determine your compatibility.

We work with all different types of people and issues. Kinship Counseling Collective's mission is to provide our clients with culturally relevant therapy, creative choices, and genuine connections.

It's never too late to understand yourself. If you can synchronize your heart and mind, you can harmonize your life. The therapeutic space I create is to help you learn about who you are as an individual and see your blind spots. Regardless if you're coming on your own or as a couple, the therapeutic work that we will be done is not just about solving problems. It’s primarily to help you figure out what's behind these issues and increase your self-worth along the way. Therapy is challenging, but can be fulfilling. The goal is to facilitate you in witnessing your life in the healthiest of ways as you become closer to your true self.

I am a strength-based Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist—one who believes we each have the inner resources we need to be successful and happy in our lives. During our life journeys, many of us may need assistance with finding and/or highlighting our inner strengths so we can breakthrough our struggles, whether they be past traumas, family patterns/dynamics, relationship/attachment issues or a simple and current need for change. My hope is to help my clients build on their strengths, pinpoint their patterns, rewrite their stories, and find their way back to the positive aspects of life they deserve to experience.

Many of my patients are adults and older adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, grief/loss, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My therapeutic approach is warm, genuine, and engaging and often combines interpersonal, cognitive-behavioral, and attachment perspectives within a safe and collaborative therapeutic relationship. I am passionate about helping my patients to identify their inherent strengths and motivations for change while also bringing awareness to obstacles that may be blocking them from experiencing lives that feel fulfilling and meaningful.

Sometimes who we think we are "supposed" to be and who we are in our truth don't always line up causing anxiety, depression, conflict in relationships and career. Recognizing and allowing the true self to emerge is empowering and challenging. I work collaboratively with you to discover this truth and along the way build some skills and strategies to support us along the journey - uncovering your strengths, your desires and your self. We will chat, move, breathe, write maybe even dance. The body is the anchor and sometimes we forget how wise and rich it is. We will see if we can rediscover this truth. I think we can.

Big life transitions can be disorienting and anxiety provoking causing stress in your relationship, work life, and sense of self worth. I understand how painful this can be. I specialize in helping people create coping mechanisms to relieve anxiety and understanding the underlying emotions behind it.

I am currently exclusively practicing tele-health services. I am a licensed psychologist and interpersonal leadership coach committed to guiding individuals towards emotional well-being, personal and professional growth. For over 20 years I have worked successfully with a wide range of clients including business owners, educators, engineers, entrepreneurs, executives, medical professionals, scientists, start-up founders, students and venture capitalists from organizations such as AirBnB, Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, Intel, Netflix, Oracle, Salesforce, Stanford University, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC Santa Cruz and USC.

Feeling anxious or depressed is a reasonable reaction to the unreasonable levels of stress that young people deal with. My work is aimed at helping you make sense of your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. I'm not here to tell you that you need to change. You might have behaviors you want to change, and I will support and assist for sure, but it's important that you know that your core self is whole and loveable, just the way you are. The work in therapy is about going from knowing that to believing it in your bones.

I'm thrilled you are here. Therapy is a journey of getting to know your real self. Difficult at times, therapy is worth it! I am a client centered, strength-based therapist. I want to collaborate with you within your own value system and worldview, help you uncover what's truly important to you, and live your life in a way that's aligned with your true self. Together we will highlight your strengths and resources. I especially love to work with clients who are new to therapy. For those who benefit from homework, I have a treasure trove of take home resources to help you stay in-tune between sessions.

I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients, helping them to become empowered and find a sense of purpose and fulfillment in their lives and relationships. Sometimes in life we feel stuck, lost, or simply want to learn more about ourselves - therapy is here to help you heal and grow. I work with a wide range of issues and a variety of people. People often come to see me when other modalities of therapy haven't worked, such as just talk therapy. My approach is holistic - I use somatic therapy and mindfulness to enrich and diversify your growth. You are the expert in your life and I am here to help guide you back home to yourself.

Starting therapy for the first time or returning after a long break can feel intimidating. You might have even had bad experiences before. I'm here to help. We will go at your pace because your experience is important to me. I believe that lasting change and healing can only happen when our whole selves are seen and welcomed. I provide a safe healing space and bring a strong, grounded presence so that you can begin to cultivate more love and compassion for yourself, connect with your inner wisdom and become more whole and authentic in your relationship with others.

My approach to therapy uses humor, openness and honesty to dive beneath the surface of emotions, and address the root of the discomfort. Whatever it is that drives you into therapy - dissatisfaction with your job, relationship or just life in general - is explored in an environment of curiosity and compassion. We often cause our own suffering by being our own worst critic & through the made up stories we tell ourselves. Through our work together, we can uncover and address areas in which growth is wanting to occur, so you can become your best self.

We all experience life's challenges, feel alone, stuck and unsure what to do sometimes. Therapy can be deeply healing, when we can open up and take the first step towards mental well-being and self-love. If this is you, you're in the right place.

Hi there, I'm Jeannine! My name is Jeannine Colwell and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist ( LMFT) based in San Diego, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with teens, adults, law enforcement, military, and veterans and specialize in anxiety, depression, anger management, substance use addiction, sports, coaching, etc. using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy, coping skills, coaching, to help my clients make progress and start feeling awesome again. My focus is all about you and meeting you where you are at! Looking forward to meeting you!

Are you experiencing: relationship issues, feeling overwhelmed, or stuck? Perhaps you are in a Neuro-Diverse relationship (you're wired differently) and stuggle to understand each other and get your needs met? Do you want to learn better commuication and problem-solving skills? Maybe you want a more fulfilling sex life - solo, or with your partner. There are many things that affect us and our sexuality over time - stress, age, life events, hormone changes... I can help you navigate these areas to find the answers you're looking for and get you to a better place!

As a native of Southern California, I deeply connect with the diverse communities I serve. My passion for advancing the field of Marriage and Family Therapy led me to pursue extensive education and training, culminating in a Doctoral degree. With a strong foundation in research, clinical practice, and business, I founded two impactful ventures in 2023: The Center for Mental Health Excellence (CFMHE), a California non-profit, and The Institute for Relational Well-being, a national practice. These initiatives reflect my unwavering commitment to enhancing mental health services and promoting community well-being.

#1 You are courageous. It is not easy to ask for help or be willing to look at coping strategies or attachment styles that are no longer serving you. I strive to provide an open unbiased environment to develop a comfortable therapist/client dynamic in order to begin processing past or current issues with a focus on goal setting and starting where you're at. Change happens when you believe it can happen and the only failure is in not trying. I strongly believe that there is no destination, only the journey and in focusing on the process and being mindful, you can achieve anything.
