Bruce Hearn Psychotherapy

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who works in San Francisco and online. I am an LGBT friendly therapist.

I provide individual psychotherapy and marital counseling for anxiety, depression, life transitions and relationship distress. Hello, if you've reached this page you might be looking to find out more about my psychotherapy services. In my San Francisco, California psychotherapy practice I have specialized in working with couples and men since 2012. I make use of cutting-edge therapy modalities to help the people I work with to understand themselves more deeply and create positive change. For couples I especially enjoy facilitating change where two individuals get to become more of a cohesive couple. I like to help people who have long shied away from intimacy and emotion to develop more comfort and even welcome it. I have worked with couples where one or both partners are neurodivergent, where there may be some ADHD, and where childhood trauma has left a mark. The people I work with have various racial, religious and cultural backgrounds. I do work with women as well as men, and am especially interested in working with people who came to the Bay area for work, far from home, who feel alone and wanting to build a sense of home and community.

A recent New York Times article on forgivenness reminded me of how important forgiveness is in relationships and about the costs of not forgiving. In both my work and personal experience I have seen how ugly couples can get when resentment simmers on and on. Family members cut themselves off from each other, no longer attending family functions, staying in touch....

Finding a robust basis for your self esteem can be a challenge in a world that encourages us to find it in all the wrong places

When you’re not grounded in your true self, you will measure your own worth by how others measure your worth. The metrics will show how valuable you are. You’ll try to make the proof objective, so that you have the data to prove how fast, how successful, how great you are. Or, on the other … C...

Our Story

I work with men and women who struggle in personal relationships and who want to know more about themselves, feel more grounded and lead a more purposeful life. I help people to realize themselves more fully, improving relationships and self-awareness. If you are curious to know yourself more deeply, get in touch. The people I work with have various racial, religious, cultural backgrounds. I do work with women as well as with men, and welcome straight as well as gay or le***an people to my practice.
