Eric Metzgar | Associate Marriage and Family Therapist #

My path to clinical work began in the world of documentary cinema, where I spent two decades illuminating lives and communities coping with challenges of moral injury, restorative justice, and the deep-seated engines of human survival. Through that work, I learned the power of sitting with someone in their most vulnerable moments without judgment, allowing their story to be seen in its full complexity.

Today, I bring that same lens of presence, comfort and curiosity to my practice as an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist.

My time spent leading restorative justice circles in carceral settings further deepened my understanding of human accountability and the universal drive toward healing. I saw firsthand that even in the most restricted environments, there is an irresistible momentum toward growth when given the proper holding environment.

Professional Foundations

I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, an institution dedicated to the study of Depth Psychology and the "soul work" of the individual.

I am currently completing my clinical hours at the Rose Therapy Practice in San Francisco, providing therapy to individuals and couples navigating the complexities of modern life, trauma, and identity. My background also includes years of restorative justice work and a career-long commitment to social engagement through storytelling.

I live and work in Pacifica, California.
