Psychotherapy & Psychiatric Services

Psychotherapy, or “talk therapy”, is a way to help people with a broad variety of mental health concerns and emotional difficulties. Working with a psychotherapist can help you better manage troubling symptoms by teaching you coping tools to improve your overall sense of well-being.

Marin Community Clinics’ behavioral health providers are trained in a variety of therapeutic interventions, such as: cognitive behavioral therapy, problem solving therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness based techniques. We offer individual counseling as well as psychotherapy groups. Our team of psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners offer brief medication management for a wide range of behavioral health concerns. Medications can help address symptoms of mental health disorders, so you can function better.
