John Hospod, LPC Associate

I help patients cultivate self-awareness, emotional regulation, and secure connection in relationships. Patients will experience a genuine connection and attuned presence from the very first session. I focus on creating a felt sense of safety and curiosity, inviting patients to be seen and known while beginning to repair aloneness through authentic relational contact. In my practice I emphasize curiosity, compassion, and experiential work that supports lasting inner and relational change.

I support individuals and couples who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, whether from themselves, their emotions, or each other. Patients often say my presence feels grounding, attuned, and nonjudgmental, helping them feel genuinely seen and safe. They describe my style as compassionate and insightful, balancing emotional warmth with practical structure while guiding them toward clarity and connection. Many share that my thoughtful self-disclosure helps me feel more human and relatable, creating trust and comfort for those who have felt nervous or unwelcome in therapy.
