Erik Kahn

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • <1 mi away • Oakland, CA


I’m a licensed therapist trained in somatic psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies. I work with individuals, couples, and men, supporting clients with anxiety (including social anxiety), depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. I also help people navigating loneliness, work-related stress, and cultural or identity-related experiences, including multiracial relationships. My goal is to help people better understand themselves, their patterns, and how they relate to others. I tend to be warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, while also being direct when it’s helpful.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Oakland

Finding family therapists in Oakland starts with understanding what your family wants help working through. Family therapy may support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns across generations, or major life changes. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists for family issues, look for listed experience with family counseling services, counseling for family conflict, or therapy for family problems that match your specific needs.

In Oakland, the right fit may depend on location, schedule, and who needs to attend each session. Some families prefer in-person therapy in Oakland near work, school, or home, while others use virtual sessions to make scheduling easier across multiple calendars. Session structure can vary — some meetings may include the full family, while others may focus on parents, siblings, caregivers, or individual family members. Before booking, read therapist bios to see how each therapist describes their approach, session format, availability, and experience with counseling family problems.

Family therapy in Oakland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search Oakland therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person options, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can review bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
