About Theopolis

Theopolis "Ted" Cosse is a California psychologist who helps adults facing depression, anxiety, stress, and major life transitions. He sees people who may be successful at work but still feel lonely or without a clear sense of purpose. Ted works with individuals and couples who want clearer communication and more satisfying relationships.

He has 12 years of clinical experience and a background that includes work with professionals from many fields, such as healthcare, law, ministry, entertainment, and business. Many clients are actively employed and some are recently retired. His practice includes people from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds.

Ted uses approaches that look at patterns across a person's life and practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also addresses religious and spiritual questions when those issues come up in therapy. When helpful, he offers personality assessments using well-established tests to map strengths and blind spots.

Sessions focus on clear goals and everyday changes that produce relief. Conversations are aimed at helping people understand what matters to them, reduce distress, and make decisions that match their values. Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step is used to set up sessions. The therapy process is grounded in his clinical experience and attention to each person's life story and current challenges.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns in relationships and emotions to help people understand why they react the way they do; it can be useful for longstanding sadness, self-doubt, or repeated relationship problems. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teach concrete skills to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms and to change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, concerns, and day-to-day life. Together they will monitor progress and adjust techniques when something is not helping.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit around work and family schedules and helpful for keeping continuity when life is busy. Remote work can also allow shorter check-ins or options that do not require video when needed. Confirm the exact session options during booking so arrangements match your needs.
