Therapy for Couples, Relationships
& Life Transitions
in San Francisco and Across California
Every person and every relationship carries a story.
Some stories help us feel connected, grounded, and known. Others keep us stuck in patterns that no longer serve us.
At Stories We Tell Therapy, Courtney Quattrini, LMFT, offers therapy for couples and individuals who are ready to better understand the stories shaping their relationships, identity, and emotional lives, and begin creating a different way forward.
Be the Story
You Want to Tell
At the center of the human experience are the stories we tell about ourselves and the stories we tell about others.
These stories shape how we see ourselves, how we move through relationships, and how we make sense of joy, pain, connection, conflict, change, and loss.
Some stories remind us of our resilience.
Others keep us stuck in patterns that once protected us, but no longer help us feel connected, honest, or fully ourselves.
That’s where therapy comes in.
The work is not about erasing your story or becoming someone entirely new. It is about understanding the patterns, relationships, and experiences that have shaped you, so you can begin relating to yourself and others with more clarity, compassion, and choice.
Therapy Designed Around Your Story
Your story is unique, and therapy should be too.
Courtney works with couples and individuals who are ready to better understand the patterns shaping their relationships, identity, and emotional lives. Whether you are coming in on your own or with a partner, the work is collaborative, thoughtful, and shaped around your specific needs, goals, and experiences.
Couples Therapy
For couples who feel stuck in the same conversations, disconnected from each other, or unsure how to move forward.
Couples therapy provides space to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, strengthen communication, and reconnect in ways that feel more honest and lasting.
Relationships, Identity & Life Transitions
For individuals navigating relationship patterns, self-doubt, anxiety, shame, major life transitions, or deeper questions about who they are becoming.
This work helps you better understand the stories and protective patterns that have shaped you, while building more self-trust, clarity, and connection.
A Space to Understand, Heal, and Reconnect

Explore and shift unhelpful patterns or beliefs
Heal from past pain or trauma at your own pace
Strengthen self-awareness, resilience, and confidence
Improve communication and deepen emotional connection
Navigate life transitions and challenges with more clarity
Reconnect with yourself and those you love in more honest and meaningful ways
Meet Courtney Quattrini, LMFT
Courtney Quattrini is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 157969) providing therapy for couples and individuals in the San Francisco Bay Area and online throughout California.
Her work is grounded in the belief that stories have immense power — the stories we inherit, the stories we repeat, the stories we tell ourselves, and the stories we're ready to understand in a new way.
Before becoming a therapist, Courtney spent years working in communication, storytelling, and executive coaching. That background continues to shape the way she supports clients in listening more closely to themselves and each other.
Together, you can explore and unpack your own beautiful, sometimes messy, unique life story, so you can begin becoming the author of the part that is still unwritten.
