What individual therapy with us is for
Most people do not come to therapy because they lack information. They come because something in their life has stopped feeling real, connected, or liveable.
That can show up as emptiness, anxiety, grief, loss of direction, relationship patterns you cannot escape, or the sense that you are living on the surface of your own life.
Our work is depth-oriented in the simple sense that we do not skim over what matters. We slow down, tell the truth, and pay attention to what is happening between us in the room, because that is often where the real material lives.
This may be for you if
- You feel flat, numb, or disconnected, even when things look fine from the outside.
- You are carrying grief, shame, or a story you have never fully told.
- You feel stuck in overthinking, self criticism, or anxiety.
- You keep repeating the same patterns in relationships, work, or self sabotage.
- You feel spiritually or existentially unmoored, unsure what matters anymore.
What sessions are like
Relational and direct
We are active, present, and honest. Therapy is a relationship, not a service delivered to you from a safe distance.
Depth without jargon
We care about meaning, identity, grief, love, fear, and the parts of life that shape you. We do not reduce you to a set of symptoms or hacks.
A wider lens
Disconnection is not only internal. It can be disconnection from others, from the world, from purpose, from spirituality, or from life itself. We work across those levels.
Not sure this is what you need? If you are considering a lower-cost option, we also run group therapy. See current groups.
