Zachary Pyne, LPC

If you are struggling in your relationships, navigating a major life transition, or feeling stuck in patterns related to substance or behavioral addictions, you are not alone. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable adults who find themselves repeating painful relational dynamics or feeling disconnected from the life they want to be living. Therapy can be a powerful place to understand why—and to begin doing something different. I specialize in working with adults from diverse cultural backgrounds who want more fulfilling relationships and a stronger sense of self. Together, we explore the patterns that may be contributing to your needs not being met. I help you to increase awareness of how these patterns developed and how they continue to show up in your life today. Insight is important—but real change happens through new experiences. When appropriate, I connect clients to therapy groups where they can practice new ways of relating and receive meaningful interpersonal feedback in a supportive environment.

In our first few sessions, I will actively guide you in learning how to use the therapy relationship effectively. Many people have not been shown how to truly take advantage of this space. I will help you clarify your hunger for change and support you in taking greater ownership of yourself and your life. My approach is deeply informed not only by my professional training, but also by my personal experience as a consumer of high-quality therapy. I know what it is like to sit on the other side of the room and wrestle with whether change is possible. Therapy transformed my life in ways I once could not have imagined, and I’m passionate about helping others experience that same growth.
