Stress Therapists in San Francisco, CA

Life is hard, and we often find ourselves unable to break away from unhelpful patterns of thinking, behaving, and relating to ourselves, others, and to the world. These repetitive patterns keep us stuck and prevent us from living a rich and meaningful life. I can help you get "unstuck" from unhelpful patterns, alleviate emotional suffering, clarify goals and values, and remove obstacles to living a more satisfying and meaningful life.

Something doesn't feel right, but you can’t quite figure it out. Or, you know exactly what you'd like to change, but you're not sure how to get there. You feel exhausted, overwhelmed, anxious, stressed, burnt out, sad, or lost. You feel like you're having the same issues happen over and over with people you care about. You're not alone in feeling hopeless, I believe “the answers” already lie within you and I'm here to help you find them. With a little help and exploration, we can all create meaningful change in our lives.

Life has a funny way of throwing us off balance, am I right? I’m Navie (Navneet) Sandhu, PsyD, MPH, a licensed Clinical Psychologist and I'm here to help you navigate those bumps in the road. With a wealth of experience gained during my tenure at Kaiser Permanente and my postdoctoral fellowship in the Health Psychology program at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco, I am well-equipped to assist you in your story.

LIFE CAN BE TOUGH. Who has your back? Are you bored in your life or career? Do you feel alone and lonely, despite that you love your partner and your two adorable kids?

Are you escaping your feelings with drugs and alcohol, elaborate vacations, shopping, work? What plays out in your personal life plays out in your work life, causing stress, depression and anxiety.

My approach focuses not just on having fewer negative emotions, but also on experiencing more positive emotions. I see mental health as part of one's overall wellness.
