Hello.

I’m Kolbe.

I’m a Catholic husband, father, associate psychotherapist, and facilitator.

I’m here to create space for the adults who think deeply, feel deeper still, and serve endlessly to help them finally find the peace and belonging they readily offer yet can never quite receive.

My practice is evidenced-based and deeply human, pulling from my lived and clinical experience, from relational neuroscience, depth and somatic psychology, and from Christian contemplative spirituality.
