Dylan Toda, Prelicensed Therapist

Since childhood, I have been drawn to deeply understanding and experiencing our mental and emotional worlds. My ongoing training as a therapist is a culmination of this path, which has included music, life abroad, academic and religious study, and translation work. Through my work with patients and my own personal and group therapy experiences, I have seen how psychoanalytic approaches can help us delve into the complexities, nuances, and situatedness of our lives. Together, we can work to relieve your suffering and, ultimately, flourish as a human being.

 

Dylan is supervised by Loren Sobel, MD and Catherine Maihoefer, LPC.
