It depends on what's most convenient for your life. Our San Francisco office is located in the historic Hobart Building downtown, about 20 minutes from Berkeley across the Bay Bridge and easily accessible by BART. Our San Anselmo office in Marin County is about 30 minutes via the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. We also offer online therapy throughout California. Not sure which works best? Our intake coordinator can help you figure that out during your consultation call.

Holistic therapy is an integrative approach that treats the whole person, mind, body, and spirit, not just the symptoms. Where traditional therapy often focuses primarily on thoughts and behaviors, holistic therapy also honors the role of the body, the nervous system, and the spiritual dimensions of your experience in the healing process.

In practice, this means your Berkeley therapy sessions might include clinical approaches like CBT or IFS alongside somatic practices, mindfulness, breathwork, or exploration of meaning and purpose. The goal isn't just to feel better. It's to build a life that actually feels like yours.

The easiest way to get started is to book a free consultation call through our website. During this call, our intake coordinator will learn more about what kind of support you're looking for, answer any questions you have, and match you with one of our Bay Area therapists. From there, we'll schedule your first session at our San Francisco or San Anselmo office, or online, whatever works best for you.

Most clients are scheduled for their first session within one to five days. We know that reaching out for support takes courage, and we don't want scheduling to become a barrier. When you book your consultation call, our intake coordinator will work with you to find a time that fits your schedule as quickly as possible.

Both can be deeply effective, and the best choice depends on what works for you. That said, many of our clients find that in-person therapy offers something unique. When you come into the office, you're stepping out of your daily routine and into a space that exists solely for your healing. There are fewer distractions, it's easier to tune into your body, and the nervous system often settles more quickly when you're physically present with your therapist. For modalities like Somatic Therapy and Brainspotting, in-person work can be especially powerful.

Absolutely. You can move between in-person and virtual sessions whenever you need to, no complicated process required. Life changes, schedules shift, and we want therapy to work with your life, not against it. Just let your therapist know before your session, and we'll adjust.

Yes. Anxiety therapy is one of our primary specialties. We work with clients experiencing generalized anxiety, panic attacks, high-functioning anxiety, imposter syndrome, and burnout. Our approach goes deeper than surface-level coping strategies. We use Somatic Therapy, IFS, EMDR, and Brainspotting to get to the root of anxiety, not just quiet the symptoms.

Yes. Our therapists specialize in trauma recovery using modalities like EMDR, Brainspotting, IFS, and Somatic Therapy. Whether you're working through childhood trauma, C-PTSD, intergenerational trauma, or the lasting impact of a difficult relationship, we offer care that addresses the whole experience, not just the symptoms. Book a consultation to connect with one of our trauma therapists.

Yes. Couples counseling is available both in-person and online. We work with partners in all kinds of relationships, including married couples, dating partners, LGBTQIA+ couples, and non-traditional relationship structures. Whether you're navigating communication breakdowns, trust issues, intimacy concerns, or patterns that have been building over time, we can help. Schedule a consultation to get started with one of our couples therapists.

Absolutely. We serve clients from across the East Bay, including Oakland, Emeryville, Albany, Kensington, El Cerrito, and Richmond. Our San Francisco and San Anselmo offices are both easily accessible from the East Bay, and we offer online therapy for those who prefer to meet from home.

Your first session is a chance for you and your therapist to get to know each other. You'll talk about what brought you to therapy, what you're hoping to work on, and what feels most important right now. There's no pressure to share everything at once. Your therapist will meet you where you are and help you feel comfortable as you begin.

Yes. We offer online therapy throughout California for clients who prefer to meet virtually. Online sessions offer the same depth and care as in-person work, with the added flexibility of meeting from wherever you are.
