As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, we look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

We aim to successfully assist you in providing treatment and counseling for anxiety, depression management, anger management, couples therapy and more.

If you are seeking an experienced psychotherapist, please call or email us for an individual, couples, children or family therapy consultation today.

1) Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy refers to any session in which a trained professional interacts with one or more patients in order to help them through any psychological issues. The ultimate goal is to help the patients feel better about themselves, and be better able to function in society.

Psychotherapy can vary greatly in its focus. Marriage counseling, for instance, concentrates on healing rifts and problems that can arise between married couples. There are also types of counseling devoted to age groups, such as children and adolescents.

In other cases, the therapist attempts to treat specific problems with which the patient is dealing. Treatment for anxiety is a common example of this. Specific concerns can also be addressed over the course of the therapy sessions.

If you feel that you would benefit from psychotherapy, or have a loved one who struggles with mental and emotional pain, contact Gail P. Hunt, LCSW, BCD.

2) Anger Management

Anger can be a useful emotion, something that motivates and guides us. However, like so many other things, it can be a problem if taken to extreme. Should you be having trouble with feelings of anger, you may benefit from getting anger management.

This therapy aims to help clients gain control over their emotional state. Uncontrolled anger can lead to problems in areas like jobs and relationships. In cases where a significant other or spouse is involved, couples counseling may also be necessary.

Those who are seeking anger management or counseling can find it by contacting us at Gail P. Hunt, LCSW, BCD in Berkeley, CA.

3) Addiction Treatment

Drug use takes a tremendous toll on both the abuser and his or her family. It is no wonder that those afflicted often seek counseling for addiction treatment.

This kind of therapy aims to help the patient overcome his or her compulsion to use mind altering substances. The substances in question can range from alcohol to harder drugs. THe counseling can involve treatment for underlying issues, such as PTSD or anxiety.

Those who want to learn more about addiction treatment should contact us at Gail P. Hunt, LCSW, BCD in Berkeley, CA.

4) Couples Therapy

There is no doubt that the modern world poses many challenges to even the most dedicated of couples. There are countless pressures, ranging from work to society, that can put stress on a relationship. This is one reason that many people choose to enter couples therapy.

In couples counseling, the moderator will be balanced and nonjudgmental. He or she will try to figure out the needs and wants of both parties, and communicate them to each other. This will ideally increase the level of understanding and harmony within the relationship.

It takes a lot of work to keep a relationship healthy. Both partners need to be willing to make sacrifices. Through good communication and help from a skilled counselor, the couple can learn what they need to do.

If you think it’s time for you and your spouse or significant other to seek professional help, contact us at Gail P. Hunt, LCSW, BCD in Berkeley, CA

5) Anxiety / Depression

A basic level of anxiety is normal and healthy. It’s what keeps us on our toes for work and play, and motivates us to do well. However, at certain point it becomes debilitating, a constant fear that exhausts us and limits our opportunities. It is in these cases that professional anxiety counseling may become necessary.

Behavioral cognitive therapy attempts to change the underlying thought processes behind problematic behaviors. This can be exercised through simple talk therapy, or via methods like EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing).

This sort of counseling has many uses, and can also help issues that are co-morbid with severe anxiety by providing treatments like depression or anger management. This method has seen great success as a treatment for both depression and anxiety. Those who are searching for anxiety counseling and other forms of mental health should contact Gail P. Hunt, LCSW, BCD in Berkeley, CA.
