**Donny makes therapy financially accessible by applying your out-of-network benefits directly to our fee, reducing your out-of-pocket cost by a third or more.

Most of the people Donny works with look capable and put-together on the outside. Internally, the story is different. They feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected from themselves or from the person sleeping next to them. They've tried to change things, but the same patterns keep showing up no matter what they do. Clients often arrive saying things like I keep reacting the same way and I don't know how to stop, or my relationship feels distant and I can't figure out when that happened.

Donny's work starts with what's actually driving the patterns underneath.

Surface-level coping has its place, but it doesn't change much in the long run. The reactions that feel automatic, the dynamics that keep repeating, the distance that keeps growing, none of it is random. Those patterns were built for a reason, and they once served a purpose. The work is understanding what they were protecting, why they're not working anymore, and what a different way of operating could look like.

In session, Donny is supportive and direct. He doesn't sit silently while clients sort it out alone, and he doesn't offer empty reassurance either. He'll be in it with you, naming what he sees, asking the questions underneath the questions. The work is collaborative. It's also honest, because pretending otherwise wouldn't serve you.
