I provide psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. My aim is to help you identify and understand past experiences and to assist you in making decisions to cultivate a life of satisfaction, meaning and peace. I believe in establishing clear goals for our work together using a collaborative approach.
During our meetings we can work on quieting your inner critic, understanding your fears and anxiety, and strengthening your self esteem. My goal is to create a comfortable space in which to address your concerns and help you thrive. Feel free to send me an email to ask a question about therapy or to schedule a first appointment.

Services
Confidential Individual or Couples Therapy available. I offer 50 minute sessions at my centrally located San Francisco (Hayes Valley neighborhood) office. Therapy is a personal relationship and I believe it's important to connect with someone who you feel comfortable with, and who understands your concerns.
Mediation can be a highly effective, less stressful and inexpensive way to negotiate a divorce settlement. During the divorce mediation process both spouses meet with an impartial third person called a mediator. In the meeting, both parties discuss and resolve questions and issues related to the divorce.
Do you want to cut down your alcohol consumption? Do you want to completely remove alcohol or drugs from your life? Does it feel impossible to stop and do you feel alone in the process? I've been working for years with individuals who struggle with alcohol and drug abuse. Often therapy starts with a discussion about what the client's ideal life might look like if things change in relation to the drug or alcohol habit.
Hypnosis is a natural, familiar state of consciousness that you go in and out of many times a day. When you are recalling a pleasant memory, wondering about dinner, or are intently involved in a book, movie or daydream, you are in a state of trance or hypnosis. Hypnotherapy is a powerful and effective tool that assists you in accessing your subconscious mind.
Sometimes life is too hectic and you can't always meet face-to-face with a Therapist. That's one of the reasons why I offer Telehealth therapy. Depending on your needs and preferences we can schedule to meet over one of the video communication options, such as Zoom or phone. The sessions typically last 50 minutes and can be charged using an online credit card option.

Report
Having had a great deal of experience with numerous counselors over the course of about three decades, I am confident that I am very qualified to express a truly reliable opinion about counselors, and Don Mack is a 10, pure and simple.
Don is extremely professional, without being off-putting, and brings a wealth of know-how, and skill to what is for some people a delicate situation. (I myself find therapy to be work, yes, but overall, not difficult for me since I tend to trust the process.) He is capable, kind, and friendly...without being "too familiar."
Don had a tremendous positive
