Molly Schmidt

Therapist
I am passionate about helping people step more into their true essence. I help adults navigate the mountains and valleys of life by exploring what brings them into a state of aliveness. We explore past traumas and limiting beliefs by inviting all the inner ‘parts’ to come forward and be heard. Through exploring one’s mental, emotional, and spiritual world, we work to bring greater awareness to what is holding them back from living their most authentic and fulfilling life. I lead with compassion, authenticity, and curiosity in session. My approach weaves together these healing modalities to effectively address the mind, body, and soul. Healing is complex and non-linear, which is why I bring patience, acceptance and curiosity to sessions as we traverse these landscapes together. I believe we are always moving towards greater wholeness and we all already hold the wisdom within that is needed for change. Sometimes we just need the presence of a compassionate witness to undertake the journey.

San Francisco, California therapist: Barton Shulman, licensed professional counselor
Psychodynamic

Barton Shulman

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC (multiple states), CCMHC, BC-TMH
People come to me because they're navigating difficulties with life changes, depression, anxiety—any of a million ways that distress manifests itself in our lives. If I had to say I have a specialty, it's seeing you for the unique person that you are, and meeting you where you are in your struggle. I work with my clients to help discover what issues are causing difficulty or suffering and then to identify the strengths that people have inside of them to help address those challenges. I see my work as walking a path with you. It’s not my job to tell you which path to take or point you to a different path. My job is to walk alongside of you and point out some of the things you're not noticing. I accompany you down your path instead of telling you where to go. It's really common for people to think nobody sees them—nobody gets them—and that's my work. To set a safe place for you to be fully you, and to have somebody who sees you. Sees your doubts, your fears, all the things that you feel are flaws, and accepts you for all of that. I truly believe that at our core we're all trying to grow toward our truest self, and my job isn't to tell you what that true self is. It's really to just provide you a space to grow into that, and get out of your way, and support you and help you do it.

San Francisco, California therapist: Mitsue Nakagaki Karaman, marriage and family therapist
Psychodynamic

Mitsue Nakagaki Karaman

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
We all have moments in our lives when we need a little support. The most ambitious of us can get burnt out and even the most loving relationships can encounter bumpy roads. If you are here, you may be in that moment now -- feeling stuck or overwhelmed in some way. Perhaps you’re facing a difficult challenge or transition and need immediate support, or there is something you have carried for a long time that you’re ready to face. I offer the space to slow down, take a breath and explore what’s going on. We are all different, so my approach is collaborative and guided by how you experience the world.

Psychodynamic

Carine France

Licensed Psychoanalyst, MFT
Hello, I have been working as a psychotherapist in private practice for 18 years. In my work, my goal is to provide a vital space where you can regain an authentic connection with yourself and learn to move toward a natural state of psychological balance and wholeness . By paying attention in a holistic way to your thoughts, feelings, physical symptoms, and dreams, I strive to bring both your mind and body into a place of integration and harmony. I work with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, eating disorders, chronic pain, substance abuse, creativity, relationship issues, job stress, grief and loss, and offer both long and short-term therapy. I strive to practice with depth, imagination, and integrity and use many different treatment modalities to get to the core of what is causing suffering or stuckness and help facilitate renewal and positive forward movement. My main clinical approach is the Jungian model which seeks to support the unfolding of the individual by working very relationally and in depth with symbolic material, the unconscious, and values the person’s own inner resources.
