Sharada Thompson, LMFT

Sharada Thompson, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Sharada Thompson has devoted her professional life to the practice of psychotherapy and Existential Psychoanalysis. After more than thirty years, the work remains an abiding passion. Psychotherapy is always new — in the midst of therapeutic conversation, curiosity replaces judgment, openness overcomes certainty, and even the most painful experiences reveal surprising gifts and treasures of the heart. Sharada completed her M.S. in Clinical Child Psychology at California State University, East Bay (formerly Hayward State), and her doctorate at The Center for Psychological Studies in Berkeley, where her dissertation explored the later work of Martin Heidegger and its relevance to psychoanalysis. She was a member of the inaugural cohort of the New School for Psychoanalysis, where she currently supervises trainees. Her clinical sensibility is informed by decades of immersion in both Eastern and Western contemplative and spiritual traditions.
