HOW WE CAME TO BE

North Berkeley Couples Therapy Centers was founded in 2012, with the goal of making the practice of relationship, intimacy, couples and sex therapy more relationship-focused and accessible, without the stigma and confusion that often accompanies misperceptions about couple and sex therapy. We are also proud to welcome our more recent adjunct psychotherapy centers, San Francisco Intimacy & Sex Therapy Centers, The Napa Valley Couples Therapy Centers and East Bay Intimacy & Sex Therapy Centers. Together, we have over 60 locations spanning across the San Francisco Bay Area, and even globally, bringing attachment-based individual psychotherapy, couples and sex therapy to folks who desire a healthy and loving secure-functioning partnership. We are a branch of the California Relationship Centers, LLC. 

At North Berkeley Couples Therapy Centers, we know that healthy relationships are at the core of how change and healing occur. Having a secure intimate and connected partnership is crucial to one's health and happiness.
