Trauma therapy that moves through, not around.
Doctoral-level (PhD/PsyD) psychologists treating trauma & ptsd for people
in San Francisco and across the Bay Area — online, in-network, and usually with no waitlist. Between work downtown and life across the city, you can meet with your therapist from your apartment instead of crossing town for it.
The thing that happened isn't in the past the way it should be — it's in your sleep, your startle, the situations you quietly avoid. Trauma isn't weakness and it isn't permanent. It's a nervous system stuck in a loop that the right treatment can close.
Trauma & PTSD therapy, explained.
Trauma keeps the body braced for a danger that's already over. Our psychologists use the treatments with the strongest evidence for PTSD: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to work through the beliefs the trauma left behind, and Prolonged Exposure (PE) to take the charge out of the memory so it stops running your day. You set the pace. We work in a way that respects your nervous system — the goal is to feel more in control, not to relive the worst day of your life on command.
Trauma & PTSD therapy in San Francisco.
San Francisco can be intensely lonely for how dense it is — tech burnout, a transient social scene, and rents that keep people boxed into small apartments.
The city's therapists book out fast and charge Bay-Area rates. Telehealth widens the pool to every California-licensed psychologist, not just whoever has an office off Market Street. Every one of our
psychologists is licensed in California and sees clients across San Francisco — the Mission, SoMa, the Sunset, the Richmond, and the neighborhoods packed between the hills —
by secure video. Where you are in San Francisco decides the view out your window during session, not whether
you can get trauma & ptsd care.
What trauma & ptsd therapy here looks like.
- Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) — evidence-based, structured, and time-limited
- Prolonged Exposure when appropriate, always at a pace you control
- A trauma-informed clinician who treats your context as central, not background
Who you’d work with.
