I work with people at the tender edges of becoming —those in-between moments when the old ways no longer fit, and the next step isn't yet clear, offering a space to slow down when you feel stuck, uncertain, or pulled in too many directions.
Through psychology, deep listening, nature, creativity, and personal mythmaking, I help you reconnect with what matters, trust your own voice, and move forward with integrity.
I'm Koby, your personal mentor and guide.

How We Work Together
Our work may take place through conversation, companioned time in nature, reflective practices, or creative and contemplative inquiry. A core thread is personal myth and life narrative, exploring the stories, patterns, values, and longings shaping your path. Together, we clarify what feels unfinished, blocked, or ready to be claimed.
I draw from a range of psychological, philosophical, and nature-based frameworks, including narrative work, depth psychology, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic awareness, and emotional regulation skills. These approaches are used flexibly and pragmatically, always in service of your lived experience rather than a prescribed model.
I believe that we all carry unique gifts to give in the world, yet our capacity to recognize and share them is often stifled by fear, shame, and external pressures.
My mission as a guide is to help people recognize and embody their gifts.
Who is this for?
I offer individualized support for people who are:
• navigating a life transition or uncertain next step
• feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or pulled in too many directions
• questioning identity or purpose
• craving depth, meaning, and a clearer sense of themselves
• disconnected from creativity, curiosity and inner guidance
• seeking grounded, human mentorship
You're not broken. You're becoming.
