About

Hello.

My name is Stefan Bain and I am a Clinical Therapist (MSW, LCSW, MPH, CST/Certified Sex Therapist) with over 30 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. Educated at UC Berkeley and Stanford University, and licensed for practice in multiple states.

My therapy practice is primarily focused on men, helping men achieve wholeness and wellness. Men's issues with which I work include the following: Anger management, addiction, trauma, infidelity, parenting, loss, grief, aging, mental illness, relationships, career transitions, stress, and sex/ sexuality (including intimacy issues, performance issues, sexual identity exploration, healing from sexual trauma, porn addiction, and gender issues).
My therapy style is warm and interactive and my therapeutic approaches are based on best-practice and are evidence-based. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. One of the main goals of therapy is to provide you with the tools you will need to be successful long after treatment ends; therapy is just one step in your total wellness; the goal is to be whole; however you define it.
