Since the pandemic occurred, finding a therapist that you can see at an office has become more difficult. Many therapists in the San Francisco Bay Area who once saw clients in person remained exclusively online after the pandemic ended.
This has disappointed many people who prefer in-person therapy to teletherapy. It can feel containing to have a tangible therapeutic space that is separate from your home or office. For those who regularly work from home or tend to socially-isolate, it can feel refreshing or even regulating to be in a room with another human being.
While research suggests teletherapy is as effective as traditional in person therapy, I can very much understand why some still wish to meet at an office. To provide people this option, I continue to dedicate part of my week to in person appointments.
My office is a 20-minute walk from Walnut Creek BART, making it commuter-friendly to those located in the San Francisco Bay Area, and provides free parking.
