Bay Area Integrative Counseling

Bay Area Integrative Counseling Founded out of the desire to address some of the biggest unmet needs in the mental health field for both practitioners and the public at large.

With a strong belief that the effectiveness of healing is defined by the quality of the clinician and the therapeutic relationship, we promote a range of treatment modalities. Our director will match new clients with the therapist that will best suit their needs. We include evidence based or evidence verified practices , such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), as well as a holistic approach in our programs. The Holistic approach utilizes traditional and non-traditional methods to address the person ‘as a whole,’ integrating mind, body and spirit to help achieve the deepest level of healing possible. Somatic and Transpersonal traditions, for example, recognize that body and spirit are just as important as the brain, that feeling is just as important as thinking. Holistically oriented therapists are often more process-oriented than technique-oriented. Our motto is that the process of healing is complex and varied; if it works, we will use it.
