Hi, and thanks for checking out my page. Mostly I work with couples, but I also serve individuals. I practice Emotionally Focused Therapy (an evidence-based therapy), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychedelic-assisted therapies. In my career I've seen a lot and worked with many different kinds of people; hence, I'm professional and nonjudgmental. I enjoy being a social worker and therapist for all types of humans, but I specialize in serving queer and TGNC couples. I also offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. My belief is that being a person is hard, but good relationships are what help us to heal and feel safe.
All of us show up to adult relationships with baggage, echoes of times we felt unsafe in prior relationships. My focus is helping romantic partners work through the barriers that prevent them from feeling as close to one another as they long to. My own lived experience has taught me about the healing power of secure attachment, so I believe in this work.
I identify as queer, Jewish, white, and male/cis-male. I seek a practice that is liberatory, anti-oppressive and identity-affirming (though I do not claim expertise in these). Feel free to check out my website (davidavruch.space) to get a sense of my approach. I accept Medicare insurance; I am out-of-network with other insurance providers.
