Mission Statement

Dafos therapy provides a combination of experiential and talk therapy in order to help clients develop insight into themselves and thus, nurture growth and development. Dafos seeks to provide therapeutic change in a way that is easily accessible and enjoyable to all who engage.

Podcast

Our podcasts are presented here as a form of educational entertainment. They are not by any means meant to officially teach therapy. They are more to help us engage with the media and games we consume. While the content of these podcasts are not adult in nature, parental discretion is advised as we sometimes tackle mature themes, and on occasion the language it at least bluish. Proceed with caution but definitely have a good time. Also if you find these podcasts of interest, head over to geektherapy.org where you can connect with a world of amazing geeks, and many more podcasts from the geek therapy network.
