Rebecca Rothberg
Psychologist, Psy.D., M.A., R.Y.T.
My work with couples is similar to my individual work in its warm, engaged, and collaborative style. Based on the needs and dynamics of each couple, I incorporate elements of psychoanalytic, emotion-focused couples therapy (EFT), Internal family systems (IFS), mindfulness, and somatic interventions. Specialties include: improving communication, fostering mutual understanding, growing empathy and compassion, increasing emotional intimacy, forgiveness/repair, trust building/rebuilding, codependency and individuation, recurring relationship cycles, and anxious/avoidant attachment patterns.

KT Glusac
Counselor/Therapist, AMFT, APCC
I work with couples to bring awareness to relational patterns and support healthier ways of connecting. Grounded in relational and depth psychology, I help partners explore dynamics in the “here and now” while linking them to their origins. Humor, warmth, and presence are vital resources in navigating difficult conversations together.

Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Relationships are some of the most meaningful — and most challenging — parts of our lives. I specialize in couples therapy and relationship counseling, helping partners deepen their communication, navigate conflict with more ease, and heal the wounds that can quietly build over time. I draw on the Developmental Model of couples therapy, which offers a reassuring roadmap: it helps couples understand why certain patterns of conflict arise, and more importantly, how to break free from them and build lasting connection.

Theo Kuczek
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
We are a social species. We need human connection. Healthy human connection. Relationships can be a place to foster growth as individuals and as a unit. Finding the right words to communicate your experience and learning to hear others languages is critical to having satisfying and meaningful relationships.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
Couples therapy focuses on communication, emotional safety, sexual connection, and breaking repetitive conflict cycles. I help partners move from blame to understanding and from distance to deeper connection. We will work a lot on learning to communicate and remembering that even though we may "know" are partners to remain curious about one another and how to share and take in each other with newness.

Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I offer couples therapy that supports partners in understanding the patterns that keep them feeling disconnected or stuck. Our work focuses on slowing down communication and exploring the emotional and relational histories each partner brings into the relationship. We can work to make sense of how misunderstandings and conflicts take shape and practice actionable steps to take in the moment to foster more connection. Together, we can work toward greater attunement and empathy for the other and develop more compassionate ways of relating, repairing rupture, and moving forward with intention and care in your relationship.

Berkeley is home to the University of California, Berkeley—one of the world's great public research universities—and has a progressive, intellectually vibrant character and a community culture that is among the most therapy-positive in the United States, with an unusually high density of licensed therapists relative to population. The university's health services include counseling for enrolled students, and the academic and activist culture of Berkeley creates specific mental health pressures around perfectionism, imposter syndrome, political engagement, and the burnout of sustained social activism. The city's housing market is among the most expensive in the country, and financial precarity is a significant stressor for students, artists, and workers who value Berkeley but struggle to afford it. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, activist burnout, identity and social justice, anxiety, depression, and the complex emotional experience of living in a place with deeply held ideals about equity alongside the daily reality of inequality.
