Brendan Hall: The Love Therapist 3095 21st Street, San Francisco, CA 94110

"Brendan is a phenomenal couples counselor who creates nurturing, accepting, inclusive spaces for people of all stripes to come together for support around their relationships. I found him to be open, curious, kind, and willing to grapple with my partner and me around tough issues that most people thankfully will not ever have to face. Brendan was brave and encouraging, and he helped us at a time that we really need guidance and support. We will always be grateful."

"I've had the privilege of working with Brendan for nearly five years, and unequivocally, he is a rare gem of a therapist. From the first minute in his presence, Brendan creates an environment of comfort and ease that only deepens over time. His exceptional combination of intellect and compassion helps unearth aspects of yourself you never knew existed. Brendan adeptly dismantles longstanding patterns, guiding you towards growth and progress. Beyond his kindness, insightfulness, and remarkable sense of humor, Brendan is a genuine partner dedicated to your inner peace and the pursuit of your best life. His outstanding memory allows him to connect the dots over months and years, providing invaluable continuity. Brendan is an investment well worth every moment and penny. If you're on the complex journey of life and seeking support, consider yourself fortunate to have found Brendan—a remarkable therapist and an extraordinary human being."

"I've worked with countless therapists throughout my life and Brendan is leagues above them all. His ability to make both partners in the relationship feel heard and validated during each session, while also providing invaluable techniques to take these learnings into "real life" scenarios, is the main reason for the immense improvement in communication and vulnerability within my relationship. Brendan has a gift. My relationship would not be the loving, strong, stable, and healthy relationship that it is without Brendan. And, I know if there's ever a crisis in my relationship that feels unmanageable between my partner and myself, Brendan will be able to provide a safe space for us to work through it together. My fear going into couples counseling was not feeling heard, or worse, feeling like the blame would be put on one person. Prior to Brendan, we went to a counselor and exited the sessions feeling worse off than before! This is when I knew how crucial it was to have a therapist with Brendan's level of knowledge and care. I knew going into each session we were going to come out stronger...even if it wasn't always easy. Brendan is as equally empathetic as he is willing to gently remind you of your responsibilities in the relationship. If you're seeking serious changes in your relationship for the better, Brendan is the person to see. Thanks Brendan!!"

"I'm so grateful for all of Brendan's help. A wonderful person and an amazing love therapist. "

"Brendan is a remarkable human! As a therapist, he is engaged, warm, insightful, and caring. I saw Brendan almost every week for over five years, and he helped me navigate a series of very challenging circumstances in my first years in San Francisco. His incisive questions and observations helped me become aware of, and confront many beliefs that were keeping me from being my best self. As a queer therapist, Brendan understands the unique challenges and nuances of dating and relationships in the LGBTQ communities, and brings a perspective that very few therapists can. Brendan provides a safe and non-judgmental space where anything is on the table for discussion, and no topic is taboo. He is passionate about what he does, and is always growing and evolving. Anyone who gets to spend time with Brendan is better for it."
