Berkeley, California therapist: Amrit Schneider, licensed clinical social worker
Psychodynamic

Amrit Schneider

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When I was a young adult in my 20s' and navigating therapy for the first time, I wished that there were more therapists with whom I could identify and relate. Now, as a therapist myself, I feel grateful to be in that position for others. I identify as a South Asian/Indian-American woman, an immigrant, 1.5 generation, and a person of color. I am interested in providing services to adults and couples who may be confronting their own identities, individually, in their relationships, in their families, and in the world at large. I have been in the field of social work for 20 years and have focused on private practice for the past 4 years. My style is respectful, compassionate, and direct. I have extensive experience with goal-oriented approaches, as well as a deep understanding for how social and cultural contexts impact our lives. In addition, my work is influenced by psychoanalytic theory and attachment theory, and is informed by an awareness of trauma, including complex and inter-generational trauma.

San Francisco, California therapist: James Norwood, psychologist
Psychodynamic

James Norwood

Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
"Psychoanalysis is an authentic encounter between two people" -R.D. Laing. Therapy is hard, but it doesn't have to be awkward. You'll want a therapist who is warm without being intruding, thoughtful but not distant, caring but not smothering, someone you feel you can trust both because they are good at what they do, but also because they are another person who can understand what you're going through. I know very well the strength required to take the first step in confronting some of life's most pernicious problems with someone you do not know yet. That is why I listen carefully with a professional ear but also attempt to maintain an approachable, personal dimension to psychotherapy sessions. I'll always remember what it was like to be a psychotherapy patient for the first time. How disorienting it was and yet how immeasurably rewarding it became as I could start to confide in my therapist. Now, it is my mission to be a reliable confidant to my patients; to listen without judgment, to understand, to relate, and to work through difficult experiences. Being a therapist has always felt like an incredible privilege. I cannot imagine anything more rewarding than helping people find their way to a life they are happy with. I am available by email or phone if you have any questions about starting therapy and I offer free preliminary conversations.
