ABOUT
Scott Gordon
Scott Gordon, PsyD, is a licensed clinical psychologist and Certified Hakomi Therapist based in Berkeley, California. His work integrates Hakomi’s mindfulness-centered somatic approach with psychodynamic psychology, relational psychotherapy, and contemplative traditions through what he calls Embodied Depth Psychotherapy.
Scott works with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, relationship difficulties, burnout, life transitions, and questions of meaning and belonging. His approach is grounded in the belief that emotional experience is carried not only through thoughts and narratives,
but also through the body, relationships, and unconscious patterns shaped over time.
Drawing from Hakomi’s emphasis on mindfulness, curiosity, and nonviolence, Scott helps clients slow down and study present-moment experience with care and attention. His work prioritizes awareness, integration, and emotional presence over quick fixes or performance-driven change. He is particularly
interested in supporting people who feel disconnected from themselves, stuck in longstanding patterns, or uncertain about who they are becoming.
Scott earned his doctorate in clinical psychology from California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS).
