Specialties
Gardenia Sarazin, MFT is a highly qualified Berkeley, CA Therapist who is committed to ensuring that you receive excellent care for any of your problems. Don’t hesitate to give us a call.
History
Established in 1984.
I originally moved from the public mental health sector to my own practice in order to create more lasting change by working with clients in-depth and over a period of time that is ‘natural’ to the issues clients want to work on. Over the past 30 years, my practice has thrived by referral and my clients commute to see me from throughout the greater Bay Area — including San Francisco, Santa Clara, San Mateo and Sacramento counties.
Additionally, I have taught college courses in successful relationships, parenting to first time mothers, supervised interns, and consulted with other therapists on the dynamics of difficult cases.
My practice — my relationship with clients — becomes a source of safe and inspired support and exploration. My clients seek out our work together whenever a challenge presents itself, even after they have ‘taken a break’ or we have decreased the frequency of our sessions.

Gardenia S.
Business Owner
I have great respect for the human struggle to make sense out of life, and value the courage and commitment clients must find for themselves to embark on this journey.
I value deep understanding, gentle truth telling, acceptance, compassion, the truth even when it is painful, and risking being known. Our collaborative, empathetic bond supports vulnerability, vitality and healing, and allows the unspoken to be heard.
Couples therapy is a constellation of vulnerability, a willingness to forgive, compassion and improved communication. I am capable of absolute impartiality: our work is focused on your dynamic as a couple, and the entrenched patterns that prevent resolution and ultimately intimacy.
Whether you are in crisis or have longstanding patterns that you need to explore, understand in a new light and ultimately change, early on in our process you will be able to feel if you are in the right place.
