Susan Greene, Licensed Clinical Psychologist

Engaging in a therapeutic relationship is an act of courage and hope that can lead to relief and lasting change. You may be experiencing loneliness, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, loss, creative blocks, or the effects of trauma and oppression. Maybe you are just not where you would like to be in your life. Therapy can help to create a more fulfilling life in part by deepening self-knowledge, increasing resilience, and mitigating the effects of early life experiences. I work with adults, adolescents, and couples in a patient, respectful, and collaborative way to understand and work through underlying dynamics that may be outside awareness. I believe that our personalities are formed within primary relationships and, therefore, transformation is possible with deep understanding and acceptance of another person. I have a broad background, experience, and training in trauma, artcreativity and community mental health. I directed a writing center at a Bay Area college for 10 years and have extensive experience with the emotional and psychological aspects of learning differences.
