Austin Smythe
We all carry around wounds from our childhood. For better or worse, our minds and bodies are driven to replay those wounds until they get healed. We get into and out of the same types of relationships, we experience the same cycle of emotions and symptoms, we try to escape through the same addictions. Therapy is about stopping the repetition. It’s about noticing, naming, and understanding what’s happening so something different can start to happen. So you can experience more fulfilling ways of being. I’m a psychoanalytic therapist who specializes in helping people build a better relationship to themselves and to the powerful impulses that shape them. Most of us grew up with experiences that curtailed our development. We had to adapt to these experiences in ways that no longer serve us. Our work together will be an opportunity to understand the unique patterns your journey has shaped you with, and to free yourself from the ones that are holding you back. The most common presenting concerns I treat are anxiety, depression, ocd, trauma, addiction, grief, and relationship challenges. I work with people of all backgrounds, orientations, and identities.
