Individual therapy
One-on-one work on the patterns underneath. The anxiety. The stuckness. The same outcome showing up across your life.
For myself →Couples therapy
For two people caught in the same argument. And the dynamic underneath it that neither of you can quite see.
For us →Depth therapy for the patterns underneath. The anxiety, the depression, the stuckness that keep showing up. What people bring here:
Most of the people I work with live outside their home country. Lonely even though the people around them are kind. Not quite at home in either country anymore. Functional, but functional has started to feel like the ceiling rather than the floor.
I know that life from the inside. I live abroad myself, raising children between cultures. The work happens in the language you think and feel in.

“I came in thinking I knew what my issues were. I'd been over them a hundred times. But those were just the things I could already see. Aaron helped me notice what I couldn't, and that's where everything actually started to change.”
“I'd been in and out of therapy for years. Different therapists, different approaches, none of it really stuck. Aaron helped me understand more in a few months than all of them combined. And he talked to me like a normal person, not like all this weird therapy-speak.”
“I didn't think online therapy could really work. How do you feel a connection through a screen? But I've done in-person therapy before, and honestly, I've felt more understood by Aaron than by any therapist I've sat across from. He listens in a way that's hard to describe until you experience it.”
“A few years ago I suddenly developed prolonged panic attacks but couldn't begin to understand what had caused them. ... I can honestly say Aaron provides a form of counseling that is difficult to find anywhere else regarding efficacy. ... I cannot recommend him enough as he has helped me feel more myself than ever before.”

Before scheduling a first session, I offer a 15-minute call. A brief conversation to see if this feels like the right fit for you. Not therapy, not a sales pitch.
