Relationship Counseling Center, Marriage Therapist, Couples Counselor & Individual Therapy in San Francisco

The Relationship Counseling Center in San Francisco specializes in couples counseling and marriage counseling, with the goal of guiding clients toward healthier, more productive relationship patterns. Our San Francisco counselors are licensed marriage and family therapists with experience helping couples work through their relationship issues. Additionally, all of our counselors receive ongoing training in couples therapy and marriage counseling. If you are looking for a down-to-earth therapist who integrates interactive exchange, direct feedback, and goal-focused couples counseling, you’ve come to the right place.

To benefit from relationship therapy, it is not always necessary to attend sessions as a couple. Both couples and individuals find it helpful to talk about their relationships in order to develop better understanding and learn more effective ways of handling relationship issues. Our therapists teach communication skills to individual clients as well as to couples, whether married or unmarried, slowing things down to help both parties achieve a deeper understanding. The goal, always, is to make your relationship a more joyful, more healthy place to be.

The Relationship Counseling Center has offices throughout the Bay Area, in San Francisco, Berkeley, Marin, and Palo Alto. We offer both daytime and evening appointments, Monday through Friday. Call us with any questions or concerns or to schedule a session. Our relationship experts are more than happy to talk with you, and we can usually make an appointment with relatively short notice.
