Social Constructionist Therapists in High Point, NC

I'm a doctoral-level clinical psychologist offering cutting-edge cognitive behavioral therapy to individuals and couples in the Raleigh region of NC. I specialize in helping clients overcome overwhelming life events like trauma, divorce, loss or medical problems like chronic pain or insomnia.

If you feel burned out, unfulfilled in relationships, stuck in life, anxious, or down, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again.

I provide online therapy centered on personal growth and fulfillment. Recognizing that life's difficulties often prompt the search for a therapist, our work will address these immediate concerns while exploring the broader path to a meaningful life, uniquely defined by you. My approach integrates relational psychoanalysis, integral philosophy, and Eastern wisdom traditions, emphasizing mindfulness and compassion. I prioritize the present moment within our therapeutic relationship, using this focus as a means for reflection, insight, and transformation as we collaboratively create a space to understand the significant particular and universal experiences of your life.

I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.

Therapy can offer a space to better understand yourself and the experiences that have shaped you. I help adults make sense of trauma, neurodivergence, burnout, identity, and life transitions by understanding their experiences within the context of their relationships, environments, and the systems they have navigated. Together, we'll build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change in a compassionate, collaborative space.

High Point is the self-proclaimed Furniture Capital of the World, hosting the High Point Market twice annually—the world's largest home furnishings trade show—and is part of the Piedmont Triad region alongside Greensboro and Winston-Salem, with an economy anchored by manufacturing, trade, and logistics that has undergone significant transition. The city has a large African-American population and a growing Latino community tied to manufacturing and service industries, and the mental health landscape reflects economic pressures and workforce transitions as traditional manufacturing employment has changed. High Point University's growth has added a college-town dimension to the city's character, and a private therapy sector serves both the professional and working-class communities. Common therapy concerns include economic stress from manufacturing sector change, racial identity and community belonging, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of accessing mental health care in a mid-size Piedmont city navigating deindustrialization.
