San Francisco, California therapist: Dr. Christina Charlotin, psychologist
Serving Black / African American

Dr. Christina Charlotin

Psychologist, Psy.D.
My goal in my work is to empower you to break away from the chronic emotions, thought patterns, behaviors and outcomes that do not serve you. When setting our treatment goals, we’ll discuss what you’d like to gain, what you’d like to keep, & what you’d choose to no longer experience. With that information, we’ll work towards creating your version of happiness.

San Francisco, California therapist: James Norwood, psychologist
Serving Black / African American

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.

Calabasas, California therapist: Dana Fogel-Stark, therapist
Serving Black / African American

Dana Fogel-Stark

Therapist, M.S., LMFT
Welcome to my profile. My name is Dana Fogel-Stark and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist specializing in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders, Depressive Disorder and Couple/Relational Issues. I have been licensed as a psychotherapist for over 20 years and in full time private practice in the heart of Calabasas. My therapeutic approach is eclectic focused on both helping clients gain insight and awareness as to the origin and cause of their struggles as well as helping clients gain the tools and coping mechanisms needed to overcome their challenges. I believe that therapy is most effective when the therapeutic approach is tailored to the specific presenting issues that the client is facing. I create a personalized treatment approach with every new client based on their specific needs. I use Evidence Based Therapy to treat obsessive worries and ruminations, physical manifestations of anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social anxiety, and struggles with perfectionism/performance anxiety. My passion for using CBT is that I get to witness significant improvement with clients in a short period of time. In addition to CBT I also use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Exposure Response Prevention as well as teaching emotional intelligence in my work with clients. I look forward to working with you.
