**Intro session with new clients conducted over Zoom. Please book session to start on the hour - Thank you**

Hello & Welcome! My work is insight-oriented and focused on meaningful internal change, not just symptom management. I am a compassionate and experienced clinical psychologist and educator licensed in California with additional certifications in NLP & Ericksonian therapeutic hypnosis. Queer, gender fluid and femme folks at the intersection of gender, sexual & relational diversity (GSRD) + cultural diversity + neurodiversity are my primary focus. Alt high achievers in tech, medicine, mental health, academia and the creative arts are some of the folks I work with. A main diagnostic specialization is anxiety, our modern-day malady. I am a founding member of Bay Area Open Minds, therapists affirming GSRD as well as the author of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Journal. Eurasian Filipino-American, I am inclusive and embracing in my approach. Note: I will be a speaker at the International Conference on Spirituality and Psychology in Bangkok March 13-15. Vacation March 9-13. Return to San Francisco office & Mon-Fri hours week of March 16.

Feeling off, overwhelmed, or stuck? You deserve support as you work through this part of your life❤️ I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, stress, and other common human experiences, such as grief and loss, changes in mood, and major life changes.

My practice is the result of 7+ years of experience helping people across private practice, outpatient community mental health, correctional settings, and intensive outpatient care. I use evidence-based strategies to help clients build practical coping skills, manage difficult emotions, and navigate challenges in a way that fits their life and circumstances.

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure about the next step. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we will work through challenges at your pace and help you move towards healing, feeling balanced, and gaining a clearer sense of direction.

I offer early morning sessions into the early afternoon for early risers, busy schedules, and for those who want to start their day feeling supported.

Howard Kaplan

Howard Kaplan

Psychologist

Virtual • California


I am a psychotherapist and clinical supervisor with 35 years of experience. I am a caring and dedicated therapist who often goes the extra mile when it will assist a client. I highly value creative and artistic expression, and I help my clients tap into their strengths and passions. I am able to do this, in part, based on my rich background in humanities and the arts (literature and theatre, expository and creative writing, acting and directing, and music: creative fields in which I've directly participated and/or taught at the undergraduate and graduate level). Clients I work with especially well are curious, introspective, willing to dig deep, and interested in becoming more compassionate towards themselves and others. They aren't afraid to look at their feelings in the here-and-now of the therapeutic relationship.

Having worked in highly diverse settings and at multiple levels of care, (often with highly undeprivileged and stigmatized client, such as adolescent and sex offenders, inner-city alcoholics and substance abusers, and severely mentally-ill patients in psychiatric civil commitment ) I am able to help with a wide range of concerns, but some areas in which I am particularly skilled are major depression, bipolar disorder, adult ADHD, addictions, impulsive, compulsive, or excessively inhibited behavior, relationship issues, life crises, and the search for personal meaning.
