Human connection is essential. Yet it’s the people we love the most whom we assume cause us the deepest hurt. If only they would listen, understand, and meet our needs. Love should be easy—shouldn’t it? What if I told you that these very paradigms of thinking—though deeply human—can actually stand in the way of the connection we truly desire? My focus is on helping couples (married and unmarried), families, and individuals who find themselves in dysfunctional or disconnected relationship systems. Through a family systems lens, we’ll explore how your current relationship patterns are shaped by the dynamics of your family-of-origin.

You’ve built a life that looks good on paper—but inside, something feels off. You may be successful in your career yet quietly battling anxiety, burnout, or relationship struggles that no one sees. You might love your partner but feel stuck in the same arguments, craving connection and wondering why it feels so hard. Or you may be carrying the weight of past trauma while trying to keep everything else running. You’re insightful and capable and have likely tried to manage this on your own. But you’re tired. You want more than coping—you want clarity, relief, and deeper fulfillment in your life and relationships.

Psychodynamic Therapists
Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.
How long does psychodynamic therapy last?
Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.
Does psychodynamic therapy work?
Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.
What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?
Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
