Couples Counseling with Todd

We had the pleasure to meet during an extended training course where we both had the opportunity expand and refine our skills as therapists. For Todd, empathy and authenticity are traits that come naturally to him. Todd offers a warm and supportive presence while also holding a powerful frame of transformative wisdom through his training and knowledge base. As someone who appreciates the need to be met where I want to be met, I recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist seeking personalized support in their process of deep and meaningful change.

Todd is somebody I can count on when I need to gain a broader perspective. Todd supported me while I was going through a painful divorce. In addition to helping ground me when things were difficult, he was somebody I could really count on being able to hear what I was going through. Now that I am dating and meeting new people again, he has compassionately helped me become more aware of my patterns so I can go after guys that are more available. He’s a great resource for navigating relationships whether you’re a couple or you’re single.

I’ve witnessed Todd’s particular passion for working with couples. He
has developed a strong understanding of how to help people get what
they want from their relationships while also attending to their
partner’s needs in a balanced positive manner. I heard a couple i
referred once say, «Todd showed us how to turn our difficult
conversations from a fight into a place with more understanding where
we are able to really listen and be heard by one another.»
Todd cares for his people. He helps improve self-​esteem and enhances
healthy communication. He helps his couples experience love for
themselves and those around them in new and profound ways.
As a counselor myself, I believe I know when I see productive, helpful
and innovative work being done for people’s well-​being. In the years
I have known Todd, I have been continually impressed by his knack for
connecting to clients, exploring with them the aspects of their
relationships, and helping them transform the culture of their
relationship.
Todd does this from a deep respect and belief in his clients’ ability,
as well as in his skills and a licensed MFT and EMDR practitioner. He
works from an EFT (Emotion Focused couples Therapy) game-​plan.
Todd has also led groups for couples in the East Bay, which was based
on a curriculum for success he co-​created.
It is with my full professional support that I recommend Todd to YOU,
for your needs, wants and desires for a better quality life as
designed through improving your relationships with yourself and
others. Give him a call (what’s the harm :) and talk to him. I’m
confident you will benefit from the sensitivity and professionalism he
offers.

I first met Todd during an extremely difficult time in my life over 2 years ago. Since then, I have been seeing him every week, and only just stopped visiting on a regular basis.
Todd has an incredibly strong sense of empathy for his clients. In my case, this helped create a relationship between us where I learned to trust him implicitly, and that led to more honest and open conversations and more personal growth for me. He’s also extremely flexible — I have met him at times that work for me, and he has been accommodating in many ways to make sure I could keep my appointments over the last 2 years. Finally, his work is focused on lasting change. By investing in our relationship, I was able to get a significant amount of personal growth, improve my relationships with the people who are important to me, and transition successfully from a very difficult time in my life.
Based on my personal experience over the last two years, I really cannot recommend him enough.
