Dan Walinsky (He/Him)

Approach Description: The therapeutic work that I’m best at is relational. By that, I mean that it begins with building a compassionate, caring, and trusting relationship in which all our work is rooted. Together, we will explore the ways in which symptoms like anxiety or depression have evolved and function in your life. Or we will collaboratively address the ways in which problems come up for you – in your relationships, decision making processes, work life, or in other meaningful ways. Work is sometimes brief and focused on solving a problem, while sometimes therapy takes a slower pace, focusing on ways in which early life relationships have created a blueprint for how you experience other people and the world around you. Other times our work may look at specific experiences of major traumatic events or more pervasive experiences of disrupted relationships. Work with me is informed by therapeutic approaches that recognize the importance of the body, brain, and nervous system, along with the mind, brain, spirit, and psyche.
