Gene

Dr Gene Grossman

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

I strive to be the kind of therapist I would be happy to see. I would want someone to be thoughtful, insightful and help me to get unstuck and grow.

About Me

I believe therapy should feel like a genuine conversation, helping you move forward with clarity. My aim is to be thoughtful and insightful, guiding you to understand what keeps you feeling stuck. We’ll explore challenges together, fostering personal growth and new perspectives. If you’re seeking a supportive space to navigate life’s complexities, I offer a collaborative approach. We can work together to help you find your path to greater well-being.

Approach

I aim to turn the clarity we build into practical steps for change, meeting you with steady curiosity and respect. In Oakland or online, in English or Armenian, sessions feel paced and pragmatic—short check-ins, deeper exploration of relational patterns or past abuse, and collaborative planning between meetings. I help clients notice small shifts, try new ways of relating, and track what works so progress doesn’t rely on insight alone. People looking for thoughtful, steady support through relationship and trauma challenges often find this approach helpful.
