I offer a compassionate, affirming therapy space (therapy dog optional!) for children, teens, and adults to work on their relationships with themselves and others. Whether we focus on life transitions, traumatic experiences, stress, identities, personal or professional life, or current symptoms, you or your child will be able to take steps toward supporting your wellbeing. Following our work together, many of my clients report experiencing less stress, more “follow through” with difficult tasks, increased life satisfaction, and more confidence within themselves and their relationships with the people around them.
I often support healthcare professionals and students of all ages (college and grad school, too). I specialize in working with the disability, neurodivergent, chronic illness and/or LGBTQ+ communities, but we can still work together even if you are not a member of these groups!
Finding a psychologist can be a challenging process. I am grateful to be able to provide care to Oregonians and Californians, and I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation to see if working together may be a good fit for you and/or your child. Whether in person in El Cerrito or online, I look forward to meeting with you.
Call or Madi Marcus now for a free 15 minute consultation - (415) 858-1573

I believe (and research does, too!) that the quality of the therapy relationship is one of the most important aspects of treatment. I offer brief- and long-term therapy options and adjust your care based on what you need. No matter the type of therapy, I practice from a multicultural, relational frame and consider how your context shapes your experiences—including your mental health experiences.
