About Peter Pondolfino

Clinical Psychologist

Psychotherapy is an uncluttering process, one that leads to a clearer understanding of ourselves and others. Through this process, choices become clearer and our true nature re-emerges. Anxiety, depression, angry feelings, conflict, and confusion – all give way to a growing self-confidence and clarity of what is most meaningful in our lives.

Gestalt Therapy is the model of psychotherapy I favor. In the context of an authentic relationship it involves identifying interferences that exist, resolving impasses, and discovering new solutions to life’s nagging dilemmas. We will find out how you meet the world, what is working, how you may get stuck and how to let go of outdated habits.

I have had the incredible privilege of assisting individuals, couples and groups in this uncluttering process since 1989 and it remains a central part of what gives me my own strength and vitality. My practice is centrally located in a Santa Rosa office building with a private entrance and a quiet, confidential atmosphere. There is easy and ample parking. It is also directly on city bus routes and is handicap-accessible.
