I am a Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in individual and couples therapy, and I maintain a private practice in San Rafael and San Francisco, CA. I have over 12 years of experience as a marriage and family therapist. I am a graduate of CIIS (The California Institute of Integral Studies) specializing in relational, attachment oriented therapy and am currently working in private practice with a broad spectrum of clients. Among my areas of expertise are depression, anxiety, relationship and couples therapy as well as working with trauma, addictions, anger, life transitions and grief. I also present at agencies and supervise and train interns. As a parent and husband, I also bring personal experiences and wisdom to my work with you.

I am an interactive, relational and emotionally focused therapist. My therapeutic approach is to provide support and presence for clients to contact their inner resources to effectively work with limitations, grief, anxiety and relational struggles. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing.

Recommendations

Tom has a natural, beautiful way of being, which no doubt, provides a powerful and gentle holding for his clients. He is bright, sharp and a true seeker on a path of conscious self-examination and liberation. I have recommended him and will continue to do so.

Jessica Wallace
Clinical Director at Golden Gate Integral Counseling Center

After many years of experiencing Tom in a shared community group, I recommend him on the basis of his sincerity and commitment to understanding the human predicament, and his care and interest in the people in his life, whether it be friends, family, or clients. If you are seeking a psychotherapist, Tom has the right qualifications and experience.
