Welcome! My name is Ryan Malphrus, and I have been working with individuals providing psychotherapy for over 15 years bringing awareness to others inner worlds as a means of improving functioning and overall life satisfaction.

I began my career working in special education for over 10 years, which has profoundly shaped my practice and philosophy of psychotherapy. The remarkable children and adolescents who honored me with their stories have left a lasting impact. I have witnessed transformational growth in those dismissed as "lost causes," instilling in me a firm belief in the transformative power of psychotherapy.

Although I hold no allegiance to any one modality, my primary orientation is a Psychodynamic approach - exploring one's entire life story to best understand present day challenges. I work in collaboration to identify and remove barriers that may hold you back from growth. Growth within psychotherapy is not facilitated only through insight, but also experiencing a different type of relationship. Therapy will not be a purely positive experience and I encourage everyone I work with to bring that into the session when those feelings inevitably arise.

If you're seeking a thoughtful, collaborative, and challenging approach to psychotherapy, supervision, or training, I invite you to reach out. Let's explore how we can work together to navigate life's challenges.
