Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Managing women's health issues can be stressful and overwhelming, but you don't need to suffer alone. I support women experiencing things like perimenopause, menopause, PMDD and infertility. We can't eliminate the health issues you are facing, but we can work on strategies for managing the symptoms to ease your stress and help you feel in control of your life again. You don't need to be defined by these health issues; together we will explore who you are and find ways to build a full, satisfying life.

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.
