Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Our personal journey is both joyous and challenging. Life brings us things where sometimes we become lost and struggle.
During these times, we may need to reach out to someone who is caring and nurturing - someone who will listen and is knowledgeable.
I work with individuals (adolescents & adults), couples and groups both men and women of diverse ages and backgrounds. I help my clients create the lives they want as we address a wide range of emotional and relational challenges.
Some special areas of focus for our work together can include:
• Personal and Spiritual Growth
• Life Transitions and Adjustments
• Alternative Relationship Issues / Consensual Non-Monogamy / Polyamory / Open Relationships/Swinging
• Alternative Sexuality Issues / Leather/Fetish/Kink /Power Exchange Relationships
These are just some of the things that you may find challenging and cause us to suffer:
• Life Transitions
• Relationships Issues
• Depression, Anxiety, & Loneliness
• Low Self-Esteem
• Lack of Clear Purpose
• Grief & Bereavement
• LGBTQ & Coming Out Issues
• Issues of Sex, Sexuality, & Alternative Sexuality

John Grossberg PhD MFT M.S. Counseling Ph.D. Anthropology. Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist: CA Lic.# MFC 34782. Office location: I am located in the Noe Valley District of San Francisco CA. Tel:(415) 970-1020. I provide individual, couples', and family therapy (adults only - including polyamorous threesomes and adult children living with parents). I also facilitate interactive, experiential workshops on issues related to adult human development, diversity, and internalized oppression and self-esteem. I began my study of mental health as an Anthropologist and I am specifically trained to work cross-culturally. My PhD in Anthropology was not a qualifying degree to practice psychotherapy in the State of California so post-PhD I earned a Master's in Counseling. I began to work with clients in 1992-1993 as a trainee and shortly thereafter as an intern. I have maintained a private practice under my own license since 1998. I offer therapy to adults wanting support around issues or concerns related to relationships, family of origin, self-esteem, grief & loss, stress/burnout, life transitions and lack of fulfillment. Clients of all ethnic, gender and sexual identities are welcome including professional sex workers, the BDSM/kink/fetish communities, and polyamorous clients. I accept private pay and most PPO/POS out-of-network insurance, and I do the paperwork for those using their insurance. I am an in network provider on many Blue Shield of California Insurance plans including a number of out of State BCBS/Blue Card Plans.

I work with individuals, couples, and consenting nonmonogamy-poly relationships and have experience working with the kink/BDSM, consensual non-monogamy, polyamory, swinger, and sex worker communities. I enjoy working with wherever the client is but also admire the complexity of overlapping identities we all carry in our lives.I can address a broad range of topics from depression and anxiety to relational and intimacy challenges, individually, as a couple, or as a family unit.
