Welcome For the past 15 I have provided therapeutic services to a diverse range of adults, couples and children throughout the Bay Area. The therapy I provide has successfully helped people achieve their goals and improve their lives. Psychotherapy is a tool that helps people manage and cope with difficult life circumstances. It is also a process that creates lasting positive change. My style is warm, engaged, thoughtful and effectively challenging. I am trained to help people utilize and build upon their strengths, to effectively improve the quality of their lives. My clients often report they notice a positive difference in the way they feel about themselves. They describe a decrease in depression and anxiety, an improved mood, a renewed sense of confidence, and more fulfillment in their relationships. Choosing the right therapist is a personal and important decision. I am happy to offer a free initial phone consultation to give you a sense of my approach in working with you. 1757 Union Street - 3rd Floor, San Francisco, California 94123 PHONE: 415-255-4214 EMAIL: lori@sftherapy.netmailto:lori@sftherapy.net?subject=Lori%20Lavinthal,%20MFT%20Inquiryshapeimage_5_link_0
