Dr Fran Wickner

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

“Over 35 years experience working with individuals, families, couples and adolescents. In-person or remote throughout California. My style is warm yet interactive, helping you work on what you want to change in the future rather than being only stuck in the past.”

About Me

My warm, interactive style helps individuals, families, couples, and adolescents find clarity. With over 35 years of experience, I guide you towards what you want to change. We focus on practical steps for your future, not just dwelling on the past. This approach is ideal for those seeking to move forward and build stronger connections in their lives.

Approach

With an eye toward where you want to go, I guide sessions using practical exercises, focused reflection, and gentle challenge so new ways of relating actually get tried out. I see people in Berkeley and remotely across California in English, keeping a steady pace and clear takeaways each week. We set small, doable steps, practice communication or coping skills in session, and use brief between-session exercises to reinforce change. This approach fits those navigating transitions, relationship strain, addiction or burnout who want collaborative, solution-focused work.
