Adults Therapists in Gramercy Park, New York, NY

Uncomfortable symptoms exist for a reason. We can take medication to make them go away for a while. Alternatively, we can take the time and make the effort to listen to ourselves and work, with the help of a trained ear, to decipher what our symptoms reveal about what is not going well in our lives. As a psychoanalyst, I engage with my patients directly and know that their work is not done alone. Our work can be diverse in nature: it can focus on a very precise conflict; it can be about the desire to overcome a difficult experience or a painful past; it can mean learning about oneself or receiving support to move forward.

In a world where so many expectations are placed upon us, therapy is a place where the only expectation is to show up. Otherwise, therapy is for you, and it is what you make of it. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, dating life, trauma, loneliness, creative blocks, life transitions, or other challenges, I will hold the space for you to feel heard and understood, and in the process, better understand yourself. Together we can explore ways to most effectively address and overcome the obstacles you are facing.

In my clinical practice, I work with individual adults who struggle with forming their own identity (I often say I'm a good fit for people who feel like the "black sheep" of the family), discomfort in their body (which may express itself through difficulty with food, eating patterns, discomfort with sex). Working together in a safe and open space has been helpful and productive for my patients, allowing them to gain access to a sense of worth and fullness they didn't know was possible.

I believe that a client-therapist relationship based on trust, safety, and genuine acceptance is the most important part of the counseling process. I help my clients find the tools within themselves to cope with the hardships of life so that they may not only function, but truly flourish.

My approach is based on the idea that the meaning we give to our experiences influences how we see ourselves and the world.

We all have our own negative thought patterns that impact our confidence, self-esteem, and mental health. What ideas and beliefs do you have about yourself? Perhaps those beliefs are causing you to be stressed, anxious, or depressed. Together, we can discover your unique thought patterns, become aware of their impact, and start to replace them with more motivating and positive self-talk. We can also begin to understand how your emotions show up in your body and how they might be impacting different areas of your life.

Dr. Esther Lee approaches psychotherapy as collaborative work between the therapist and the individual seeking holistic well-being and meaning in life. Her clinical experience at Columbia University Medical Center gave her a broad scope of mental health treatments and a special interest in working with women who are expecting or recently postpartum.

The psychotherapeutic relationship is the most powerful tool we have for lasting change. A practically-oriented, emotionally alive connection with someone who speaks your intimate language makes all the difference. It repairs old wounds, resolves unfinished business, and provides tools to confront whatever life presents and helps you become your truest, deepest self. In my books--two address problem siblings and another explains obsessive love--I bring the same passionate commitment I do to the people I work with in therapy. On my website, JeanneSaferPhD.com, you can see me on TV, hear me on radio, and read articles by me and about my work.

All of us develop ways to handle the stress and challenges that life throws at us. Sometimes those techniques are unhealthy and counter-productive to our growth and fulfillment.

I strive to develop a relationship where you can explore challenges, emotions, and struggles in a safe and supportive environment. I am committed to creating a space to help you feel respected and empowered.
