Russell Hendlin

Therapist

Virtual • San Anselmo, CA


I am licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist, with a private practice in Marin since 1990. I got my undergraduate degree from Columbia and a masters of science (psychology) from Antioch University.

I have experience with children, adolescents, adults and families since 1975. I am retired from his position as Director of Medi-Cal Services and a clinical supervisor and staff trainer at Through the Looking Glass in Berkeley. Through the Looking Glass is a nationally recognized non-profit organization serving children aged 0 to 18 where a child or caretaker has a disability. I was formerly on the counseling staff of Larry Fritzlan Recovery Services in Marin.

I brings humor, compassion, clarity and understanding to my work. I try to maintain a stance of curiosity about my clients and their ways of thinking and feeling. I supports couples and families in improving communication, expressing feelings, resolving conflict, and establishing clearer roles. I encourage parents to set limits and establish healthy boundaries. He assists individuals and families in becoming more confident, hopeful, and relaxed. I support relating with clarity, serenity, and loving kindness.

My primary clinical approaches include attachment, mentalization based treatment and family systems.

I works with children, adolescents, individuals and couples who are experiencing anxiety or depression, low confidence or self-esteem, conflict in relationships, neurodiversity, personality issues, and other mental health issues. I works with alcohol and substance abuse, including dual-diagnosis and individuals working 12 step programs, as well as with individuals who would like to address a substance issue but are not open to 12 step work. I work with trauma, and with problems with attention and emotional regulation.

Therapist

In-person

11590 West Bernardo Court, San Diego, CA

Are you are experiencing verbal and/or mental abuse from a romantic partner, a parent, sibling, friend, co-worker? Do you struggle with your own internal thoughts (e.g. "you’re not good enough”, "it's all your fault", “you are not a priority”). Maybe you’ve lost someone and you’re grieving. You are emotionally exhausted because of the pain you hide and the inability to say "no". You tell yourself the good is good but the bad is bad. You're scared and confused on what to do or how to "fix" things. These experiences create rumination, avoidance, trauma, anxiety, and more.
