A good therapist is invaluable. A bad therapist might do more damage than extreme physical mental verbal and sexual abuse combined. I went to the state. I went to the board. There's nothing I can do but hope that time will heal the damage caused by Linda Klann. Your therapist shouldn't be tatted up. That should give you an indication. I don't want my loss to be for nothing. Don't risk it. Between Mill Valley and San Francisco there are too many therapists to choose from. Get more than one recommendation from actual clients or colleagues. Search for complaints by the board in the state and yelp. The good therapists are booked.

I would highly recommend Linda as a psychotherapist because I've had a very positive experience…read morewith her. Having worked with therapists, seen others for myself and having been a client of Linda's, several things stand out to me about Linda and her work - she is attentive, genuine, empathetic, understanding, positive and trustworthy. I also appreciate that she is very real, down to earth and open minded in the conversations we share, as well as has a good sense of humor. You can talk to her about ANY topic. In going to see Linda, she has helped me recognize important aspects of my life and feelings, helped me keep myself in check and empowered me to make changes without me feeling pressured. My initial concern in seeing a therapist was sitting in a chair feeling like I was under a bright light with someone intently staring at me, examining each word I said, merely nodding and jotting down notes throughout. Fortunately, all these anxieties were alleviated in my first visit with Linda - by no means is it like that at all! Her office is sunny and comfortable and she is very relaxed and personable which helped me relax! While being sensitive in conversation, she also smiles and laughs. She's flexible in her work and in addition to conversation, she utilizes a variety of different strategies in her work, including sand tray therapy, journaling, family trees and other techniques depending on what her clients are open to. I'll also add that having worked with therapists in my area of work, I also admire Linda's work because she is very warm while at the same time respecting appropriate professional boundaries with her clients. I appreciate that as one of her clients there aren't any mixed messages about her role or mine. I've recommended her to a couple of friends who have also seen her and we're all in agreement it has been a very good experience.

I could not overstate the impact Caree has had on me and my family. While counseling support/advice…read moreis highly personal, I can attest that Caree's philosophy and approach is straightforward, simple in nature and therefore easy to apply. Listening to excellent advice is great, but actually implementing change is transformative. Caree provides easy to understand tools, that apply to real life and can be used anytime and anywhere. Her approach is underwritten by a sincere desire to listen, and allow the individual to fully express themselves before opining on what is to be done. No psychological-speak, Caree makes you comfortable because she is relatable and kind in her approach. Her office is warm and inviting - a place you're always happy to go back to. I highly recommend Caree to anyone and everyone.

We've participated in both family sessions and individual sessions, and one thing we all agree on is that she gives us hope. Her approach and techniques have been very useful so far, and even in this early stage, we can already see a light at the end of the tunnel. After meeting with her, we feel encouraged, supported, and optimistic about the healing work ahead. Caree is an excellent therapist from what I can tell, and I genuinely feel that we are in good hands. I'm grateful for her guidance and truly look forward to the growth, healing, and progress we will continue to make together. Highly recommend.

She was highly skilled at helping us tease out the real issues in our relationship and then giving us the tools to talk about them and come up with workable compromises and Lisa is hands down the best. She not only listens but works with you on solutions. She's easy to talk too and also has a much welcomed sense of humor! I would highly recommend her for individual counseling or for couples.

Lisa is exceptionally likable and approachable, and has a knack for making it easy to talk to her about difficult subjects. She is an excellent listener and I always felt seen and heard with her. There was a perfect balance of holding space for me to talk (and sort things out for myself in the process), and providing actionable suggestions for dealing with my issues and reframing the narrative I was holding on to. In addition to validation, she also gently challenged some beliefs about myself in a way that I could hear and offered a different perspective of myself or the situation. She understood the challenges, concerns, and joys that come with parenthood, which was very important to me. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

It shouldn't have surprised me, but she remembered key details about our work together, more than three decades ago! To me, this indicates not just a keen memory, but an abiding care for her clients. In our most recent work, I have especially appreciated her directness, her warmth and humor, and most of all her questions--Helene asks the smartest, most intuitive questions of any therapist I've had in my 62 years, which has led to deep and valuable personal insights and growth.

She's not the type of therapist that will just listen to you and nod for the whole session (unless that's what you need in that particular session), she's actively engaged in the conversation and everything that I share. She's also very intuitive and usually spot on with her observations. I'd highly recommend working with her, and so grateful to have found her 3 years ago.

She made me feel safe and all I can say is I have my life back. She has helped me more than I could ever say with words.

I recently found out she shared details of our sessions with my mother, whom she was seeing after I left therapy. I will post email exchanges between me and Gail for reference. I am extremely distraught and disturbed that she would share these things with someone I know. I am also contacting the Board of Psychology and Board of Social workers to file an official complaint. Gail is a bully and very intimidating. She did help me at the start of my journey, but it just started going downhill after a short while. She decided it best to include my husband in sessions since the bulk of my troubles were in my marriage. She started hitting herself on her head with a file a couple of times. She would raise her voice and scream and times. It was extremely traumatic for me. I never really felt much of a connection to her. She would forget details and was judgmental at times. I told her that I would stop therapy and seek out another therapist. It was at this time where she became super vicious. She sent me an invoice for $682.50, stating that it was a charge for all the times I contacted her outside of therapy. I did pay for all the times I contacted her. She billed me for every minute and I was paid up. She decided to bill me for every time she emailed me and wished me happy holidays or sent me a video, or shared something. Please be careful before you decide to see her, interview her and make sure she's a good fit. If your sensitive towards yelling, screaming, violence, and bullying- stay away from her. Also, if you want to keep your sessions confidential. I'm outraged that she would share details with my mom, claiming I gave her a hard time by leaving therapy. When in reality she was upset she no longer could take advantage of me, and get paid every week. Being an empathetic person I am, she probably didn't think I would voice my concern over her unjust $682 bill. She was wrong. I stayed silent but not anymore. I hope this prevents other people getting treated the same way.

We're both driven, passionate people, which sometimes means that we clash instead of collaborating, especially when it comes to giving and receiving feedback. Working with Michael on marriage counseling has been a transformative experience for our relationship. He created a space where we could feel heard without judgment, challenged without feeling attacked, and supported as we worked through difficult conversations. But what truly sets Michael apart is his ability to offer frameworks that are not only tailored to each specific issue we faced, but also unlike anything we've encountered in books or past therapy sessions. These marriage therapy frameworks helped us not only understand each other better, but also uncover our own hidden needs, and how to meet them, both individually and as a couple. When tensions rise, we now have practical, meaningful tools to navigate those moments with clarity and compassion. We're continuing to work with Michael regularly, not just to resolve conflict, but to proactively nurture and strengthen our relationship. We're incredibly grateful for his insight, guidance, and truly original approach.

Michael is great at always arriving to our sessions with a plan or exercise in order to get us talking should my husband and I be dead silent which has happened. He makes sure each of us is heard and understood. The one thing I really like about Michael is no one can give specifics in a session like she said he said. Like he did this last week, or she did that last month etc...This is important or the whole session would be cluttered with accusations when instead we work on how to be a better team and get useful skills. Michael is also awesome at reeling it in when we do go down that accusation path and the session is about to go sideways. We always end with a plan of action which I like. I highly recommend Michael to get your relationship back on track!
