About me

Hello, my name is Joseph De Vico. Let’s talk.

We’ll work together until that unsolvable problem is history, until that overwhelming pain is bearable, until the dream future that seems a million miles away is right in front of you.

You’ve always been strong, resourceful, and intuitive. I’m just going to help clear away the junk you’re trapped beneath so you can actually feel that way: false beliefs that make life seem harder than it really is; stories about yourself that are so outdated, they have nothing to do with who you are now; distractions that keep you from deciding what is most meaningful to you; power imbalances that take away good things that are rightfully yours. This stuff has to go.

What will you feel when you feel better?
Peaceful? Hopeful? Whole? Decisive? Free?
Seen, validated, grounded, elevated, invigorated, triumphant?
Just plain better?
When do we start?

Joseph's values-driven, compassionate, curious approach works great for me. I have felt understood in all of my explanations of my issues and stressors. Joseph has helped me with family issues, romantic stress, political anxiety, work difficulties, and more.

Only a couple sessions in and I feel very comfortable speaking with Joseph. He is understanding and pleasant while getting to the root of the problem.
