Virtual Sessions
Client Focus: Adults

My approach to treatment varies by the needs and issues that clients bring to treatment, but is always grounded in the person-centered principles of authenticity (I will always relate to as I am, and treat you with honesty and forthrightness), positive regard (I will not put my value judgments on you but accept you as you are right now), and empathetic understanding (I will do my best to enter into your worldview and see the world as you do). The techniques that I use will depend on the issues we decide to focus on but will always be designed to increase your psychological well-being and self-awareness. While I may incorporate Cognitive-Behavioral, Trauma focused, narrative, and dynamic/object relations therapy techniques and approaches, my main way of approaching clients is from an existential psychotherapy framework because I feel that much of what clients bring to therapy are reactions to confrontations with the painful “givens” of existence, such as meaning in life, death, choice and responsibility, and isolation. Confrontations with these givens can be painful and scary but, from these confrontations, much growth and self-awareness can be achieved with guidance and nurturance. I see my role as a co-collaborator with you, not as “doctor” to your “patient” role, and I will walk with you through your journey of healing and growth.” – Dan

Dr. Tomczyk’s treatment style is based in client-centered, narrative, cognitive-behavioral, and humanistic approaches.  He emphasizes a very individualized approach to treatment that appreciates the different and unique experiences, personality traits, and strengths that individuals bring to treatment, and he believes that all people have the ability and strengths to make their life more satisfying.
