Shrein Bahrami is a licensed psychotherapist and certified eating disorder specialist in San Francisco. She is the founder of Evolve Wellness, a group practice of clinicians specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, and is the author of Stop Bingeing, Start Living; Proven Therapeutic Strategies for Breaking the Binge Eating Cycle and The Loneliness Companion – A Practical Guide for Improving Your Self-Esteem and Finding Comfort in Yourself. For nearly a decade, she has provided counseling to clients and their families seeking recovery from anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder.
As a therapist, I enjoy bridging the mindful and self-exploratory sides of psychology with concrete, evidence-based techniques in my work. I want my clients to feel grounded with greater clarity, self-acceptance, and peace when they leave each session. I tend to be quite active in the session, providing accountability and concrete tools to bring about the changes my clients seek to make to improve the quality of their lives. My belief that we are all seeking inner growth fosters a trusting and respect-based therapeutic relationship.

Shrein is an excellent listener and always thinks 2 steps ahead. She provides feedback in a compassionate but direct way. She is warm, calm, approachable and wise. I deeply admire the space she creates for her clients and see lasting shifts in the clients we have shared together. She is truly a one clinician and leader.
Shrein is uniquely gifted therapist and consultant. I have been fortunate enough to consult with her for many years and will continue to for many years to come! I have found her to be endlessly supportive, clinically wise, intuitive, and reliable. I highly recommend Shrein for her work as a therapist, consultant, and coach.
Shrein brings a wealth of clinical experience and knowledge to her work with clients. Not only is she smart and insightful, but she transmits compassion and acceptance. As such, she creates a trusting environment in which people can grow, learn, and heal.
