I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in community mental health, co-occurring substance use treatment, and residential care settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use challenges, mood disorders, relationship stress, and major life transitions.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected and supported without judgement. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches to help clients build insight, emotional stability, and healthier coping strategies.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in San Francisco, CA

Finding couples therapists in San Francisco starts with knowing what you and your partner want to work on. Many people search for couples therapy in San Francisco for support with communication patterns, conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples modalities like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy in their profiles.

San Francisco has many therapists across neighborhoods like the Mission, SoMa, the Richmond, and Noe Valley, which can make the search for the right fit more detailed. For couples counseling in SF, logistics matter for both partners: appointment times, office location, transit access, virtual availability, and whether the therapist is accepting new patients. Some therapists offer a brief initial consultation, which can help both partners understand the therapist’s style, session structure, and approach before booking ongoing care.

Relationship counseling in San Francisco can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare San Francisco marriage counselors and couples therapists by specialty, availability, format, and insurance fit, then review bios and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
