Dustyn Salomon

I believe that wellness is an active practice. When I was younger, I was always curious about why people continue to engage in habits even after knowing it is unhealthy.

As a therapist, my clinical approach is multi-theoretical and integrates relational therapy with a behaviorally-focused cognitive behavioral therapy framework. I support clients with addressing the patterns in their life that cause them distress and explore concepts from relational psychoanalysis and family systems modalities.

As a dating and relationship coach, my approach differs in the way I address presenting concerns and patterns. I utilize a solution-focused approach that emphasizes accountability with empathy, direct communication, and objectivity. As a coach, I am more focused on where you would like to go rather than where you've been.

Direct & Action-Oriented

I cut through the noise to help you focus on what matters. You'll leave each session with clear action steps and practical strategies you can implement immediately. Change happens when you take consistent action, and I'll hold you accountable to the commitments you make.

Authentic & Client-Centered

I show up as my genuine self and expect the same from you. No judgment, no pretense—just honest conversations about what's working and what isn't. Your goals, values, and experiences guide our work together. I listen deeply and collaborate with you to create solutions that fit your life.

Insightful & Credible

I bring 8 years of behavioral health experience and evidence-based methods including CBT, mindfulness, and relational psychoanalysis. But credentials alone don't create change—insight does. I'll help you see patterns you might be missing and understand yourself at a deeper level.

Empowering

My goal isn't to create dependency—it's to help you develop the skills, confidence, and self-awareness to navigate life's challenges on your own. I'll equip you with tools that last beyond our sessions so you can continue growing long after our work together ends.

Culturally Informed & Inclusive

My work is grounded in cultural humility, anti-oppressive practice, and respect for human dignity. I recognize how systemic, historical, and sociopolitical factors—including migration, colonization, and displacement—impact mental health and wellbeing. I am affirming and supportive of LGBTQ+ individuals, BIPOC communities, immigrants, and people from all backgrounds. Your unique experiences, culture, and identity are honored in our work together.
