Michael Boykin

I work with adults, adolescents and couples, helping them unpack and make sense of challenges in their past and present life and grow from them. My name is Michael Boykin, and I practice in San Francisco, California, as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor.

Concerns I treat include internalizing challenges, BIPOC issues, men’s issues, sexuality and gender issues, psychosis, and social and relationship difficulties. I listen and reflect, guiding clients through their exploration of what they have lived, and we look for insights and patterns and develop strategies for greater self-awareness and self-acceptance.

My approach is psychodynamic and relational. It is also collaborative and culturally sensitive. I use an eclectic approach, adding evidence-based techniques when I put together personalized treatment plans. Sessions bring humor, warmth and directness. Respect, compassion, honesty and candor guide my work.
