Multicultural Psychotherapy and Holistic Healing
Kensho Center is a multicultural holistic healing center in Berkeley, CA offering a variety of supportive services including, but not limited to, counseling services, body work and energy work, with awareness and sensitivity to clients' myriad backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences.
Kensho is a Japanese word used in Zen traditions that refers to "seeing true nature or essence." At Kensho Center, we believe that one's true nature is the source of strength, inspiration and inner wisdom. Our diverse staff welcomes and affirms the positionality, intersectionality, and subjectivity of each of our clients. We recognize and celebrate difference in all of the ways that it shows up in our varying cultures, spiritual paths, ethnic backgrounds, relationships, family constellations, ages, sexualities, bodies, sizes, sexes, genders, and abilities (seen and unseen). As a holistic center devoted to supporting the growth and healthy integration of mind, body and spirit, we recognize that our clients are inherently whole people seeking to increase personal fulfillment, and deepen their relationship to self and with others. Kensho offers a variety of healing approaches that value you as the sole expert of your own experience.
Kensho Center staff supports movements of racial, social and economic justice that aim to create a more just, equitable and humane world. We are aware of, acknowledge, and also experience the insidious impacts - psychological, emotional, and physical - of everyday microaggressions, oppression, and injustice. While we help our clients cope with these realities on an individual and/or family systems level, we understand the dire need for systemic change on a national and global level as well. Toward that end, we are committed to, and are actively engaged in, our individual anti-racist work (that looks different for each of us), and hold space for clients who want to explore their own unique anti-racism process. We are all in this together. As Martin Luther King Jr. said, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere".
Healing services are offered at an affordable rate (based on your income) and fee ranges vary with each Kensho staff, affiliate, and associate healer. We are conveniently located in South Berkeley with abundant free street parking and two blocks from a nearby BART station as well as multiple bus lines.
