I am looking to find a good therapist (female preferred) in the Berkeley area, mostly to deal with past relationship issues. Prefer to find one who is willing to give you honest opinions/feedback (versus someone who just sits back and listens). I have reviewed the previous recommendations on the parents website, but info on women therapists was limited. Thanks!
Additional advice:
If you have particular qualities you want in a therapist, I suggest that you interview the therapist first, find out what her approach is and tell her exactly what you are looking for. That way you won't waste time and money working with someone whose style doesn't suit you. Good luck.
I would like to restart long-term therapy to get help with anxiety, anger, kid-raising and various other issues. I am hoping to find a wonderful woman psychotherapist in or near Montclair and would very much appreciate any recommendations. Norma

I plan to start therapy again after many years without it, and so I'm seeking recommendations for a therapist in the east part of the East Bay (Oakland to Castro Valley) who meets the following criteria: - Woman who is a ''wise sage'' and has parenting experience of her own - Therapeutic style which is nurturing and empathic but also challenging and directive - Someone who works well with clients around issues of parenting as well as in depth psychotherapeutic work Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!

Can anyone recommend a good woman therapist that is affiliated with the Pacificare plan? My husband is considering leaving and has just started seeing a therapist to try to deal with his mid-life crises. We'll eventually go the couples route, but for now I need to find someone to see myself. Thanks.

I am new to the area and I am searching for a therapist to help me better balance my own happiness with my daughter's and husband's needs/happiness. Has anyone ever worked with a therapist named Shirley Issel? If so, could you please send me some feedback about her. I am also interested in hearing from anyone who is wild about their therapist (assuming they are located near Berkeley and are taking new patients). I have to admit I would probably be more comfortable with someone who isn't TOO new-agey. I am looking for someone along the lines of a cognitive behavioral therapist rather than someone who surrounds themselves with herbs, crystals and incense. I couldn't tell from the recommendations on the website if any of those folks fit this description. Thank you in advance for your help. Sorent
