Brian profile

Dafos was born out of transpersonal, existential and humanistic psychology. The mission is to provide supportive therapy in the form of talk therapy, visualization, mindfulness, geek therapy, board games and music. The main message to the target audience is that therapy can be an adventurous experience, it can be sacred, and fun. Above all the message to the client is that this is their personal journey and we will help them to identify the destination that best suits them. The therapy we provide is client centered discussions, and experiential methodologies.

Mission Statement

At Dafos Therapy, we blend experiential and talk therapy to foster personal growth and meaningful insight. Our mission is to create a therapeutic experience that is accessible, supportive, and even enjoyable—empowering clients to embrace change and unlock their full potential.

Philosophy of Care

At Dafos Therapy, we strive to create a therapeutic environment that is healing, educational, and even engaging.

We understand that therapy can feel daunting. While it provides a space of nonjudgmental care, it also requires exploring parts of yourself that may be painful or difficult to express. Our approach seeks to balance this challenge with moments of connection and enjoyment, offering tools and experiences that help make the journey into the places that scare you feel more approachable.

Therapeutic growth doesn’t have to be all serious all the time. While entertainment and adventure alone aren’t inherently therapeutic, we incorporate activities that can make the process more enjoyable. Our expertise spans various therapeutic styles, including:

• Playing games

• Watching videos or movies

• Reading comics

• Experiencing music

• Practicing mindfulness meditation

• Engaging in guided imagery

• And, of course, the traditional “talking cure.”

Together, you and your therapist will co-create a plan tailored to your unique needs while encouraging you to bravely expand your self-awareness.

To make therapy as accessible as possible, we offer both online and in-person sessions.

Legend of Dafos

Dafos is a mythological trickster god—a playful blend of the Ghost of Christmas Present and a mischievous, sly guru. Steeped in the shamanic arts, Dafos understands that the journey inward is the true path to healing. With wisdom and humor, he encourages us to “Speak Your Truth” and embrace the messy, beautiful process of self-discovery.

Benevolent and caring, Dafos inspires us to approach growth with curiosity and courage. His influence has guided the creation of this strange little therapy company, reminding us that healing, like Dafos himself, is a little unconventional—but always transformative.
