Dan Colgan

I practice Core Process Psychotherapy, an integrated method that combines the depth of Western psychodynamic therapy with mindfulness and compassion rooted in Buddhist philosophy. This approach helps clients gently uncover the deeper patterns and historical roots of their challenges while fostering present-moment awareness. By working with your emotions, physical sensations, and imagination, we can explore how past experiences influence your current life, allowing you to loosen old habits and discover new possibilities. At the heart of my practice is the belief that every person possesses an intrinsic state of health, wisdom, and compassion. Therapy is a collaborative process where we create a safe space for exploration and healing at your pace. My work is particularly effective for unwinding trauma, navigating spiritual crises, and addressing recurring relational patterns. While I’m not a couples therapist, I draw on relationship expertise from Emotional Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method to support individuals in navigating and transforming their relational struggles. Above all, I tailor my approach to meet you where you are, ensuring that therapy adapts to your evolving needs and fosters a sense of connection, creativity, and freedom.
