Meet Fanshen, a Berkeley-based relationship and sex therapist who works with couples and individuals across California.

Her approach goes beyond simply figuring out who’s “right” or “wrong.” It’s about understanding what’s happening within ourselves, changing patterns that aren’t working, and building healthier ways to connect.

FANSHEN THOMPSON GESHER CC THERAPIST SPOTLIGHT Individual, Group & Relationship Therapist Fanshen is a Berkeley-based relationship and sex therapist working with couples and individuals across California. Certified in the Gottman Method, she also draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and somatic work. She joined Gesher because she believes therapy should be a non-ideological, non-judgmental space where clients can bring their full selves and feel heard, supported, and understood.

Fanshen believes therapy should be a space where you can bring your full self without feeling judged, managed, or corrected. That’s exactly what she found in Gesher Community Care.

And as one client shared, that kind of care can be life-changing. 💙

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance Fanshen Thompson has provided me. When I started therapy, I felt lost, overwhelmed, and far from my best self. Through her compassionate approach, deep understanding, and unwavering encouragement, Fanshen helped me regain control of my life and rediscover a sense of normalcy...She has changed my life for the better, and I am forever grateful."
