About Theopolis
CA Psychologist Theopolis "Ted" Cosse has 12 years of experience offering individual psychotherapy to adults in California. He works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, career questions, and major life changes. He also helps clients who are re-evaluating life purpose.
Ted sees adults from a range of professional backgrounds, including health care, ministry, law, business, education, and the arts. Many of his clients are employed or recently retired. He works with men and women from diverse ethnic backgrounds.
His clinical work draws on psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Those approaches guide how he talks with clients about patterns in thinking, behavior, and relationships. He also uses personality assessment tools when a clearer map of a client's patterns would help the work.
His training includes study at Fuller School of Psychology, which informs how he addresses religious and spiritual concerns when these are relevant. He describes his role as helping people notice recurring patterns and try different ways of relating to themselves and others.
Sessions focus on practical change as well as understanding how past experiences affect current life. He supports people who want clearer direction in their relationships and careers. People interested in an assessment or in addressing spiritual concerns can raise those topics during initial scheduling.

Approach to therapy and how online sessions fit
Psychodynamic therapy looks at recurring patterns in relationships and feelings. It helps people notice how past experiences shape current reactions and relationship habits. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. They provide concrete strategies to test new ways of thinking and behaving, which can reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.Choosing a therapeutic approach is collaborative. He will work with the client to identify what feels most relevant to their goals and preferences, and adjust methods over time based on how the work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when those suit daily routines. Therapists commonly adapt tasks, homework, and discussion to the realities of a client’s day so the work can be useful between meetings.
