Psychoanalytic Therapists in Sunnyside, NY
The greatest discovery I have made in life is to embrace the unexpected, to crave the twists and turns as much as the great joys of life, and to lead with curiosity. Life can often feel scary, and we may face challenges that leave us feeling like there is nowhere to turn. If you find yourself feeling this way, you are not alone. Whether you are dealing with feelings of great sadness, anxiousness that feels uncontrollable, or struggling to move past an event in your life you have turned to the right place. Seeking therapy can lead to a greater understanding of yourself, the world around you, and the person you want to be.

I work with women who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves to gently understand what’s been shaping their reactions, restore a sense of safety in their body, and build the self-trust needed to move toward the life they want.
You might look capable on the outside yet feel anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected within. You want to understand why you react the way you do, feel more grounded in your body, and trust your needs in relationships and decisions. You’re not trying to become someone else — you want more ease, clarity, and a way of living that feels genuinely like you.

My training includes psychoanalytic Intersubjective Self Psychology
I enjoy working with young adults, adults, and older adults. If you are going through a transition (marriage, divorce, new parent, new job or school, new medical diagnosis, etc) I am here to help make it easier for you. Perhaps you feel that past trauma is a barrier to achieving peace of mind and happiness. I have many years of experience helping with trauma recovery. We all suffer from various levels of anxiety and depression-but sometimes it just feels too much to manage. Just bring yourself, some motivation, and an open mind to our table! Sometimes we don't even know "what's missing" and we can figure this out together.

I have extensive experience in working with adults dealing with a wide range of issues. I understand that being with ourselves can sometimes be difficult, especially in moments of change, loss, sadness, and stress. This is further complicated when new challenges touch upon older wounds. We might also notice unwanted repetitive patterns that keep us from feeling fulfilled. As a therapist I am interested in holding space for you where you can be with yourself and make sense of your particular struggles.

Our shared cycle of human life confronts us with issues longing to be addressed in the here and now, even as rooted in the past or in a sense of unrealized potentials.We do best in engaging such concerns, including the end of life itself, when our explorations occur in an open and activating dialogical process. Additional to the interpersonal process of therapy, our dreams and our engagement with what transcends us, often provide us with the guidance needed to move forward in our living process in a renewed and dynamic manner. Collaboratively and with mutuality, this is the service I am privileged to offer.

So tempting to keep on doing what you do, even though it's not working! It takes guts to get help and try to make some better moves. It's hard to look at how you get in the way of creating effective personal and professional engagement. Whether you are looking for a new relationship or trying to find ways to improve yours, take the time to confront defensive reactive postures and develop more responsive coping skills. Leaning into "stuck" places of your relational distress and finding the courage to own damaged and damaging parts of yourself can be a liberating experience.

I work slowly and carefully to understand what is actually driving it, drawing on psychoanalytic, somatic, and relational approaches.
You are good at what you do. But something isn't working — a pattern in how you relate to people that keeps producing the same result, a sense that your considerable ability isn't fully translating, a feeling stuck in a role, a relationship, or a version of yourself that no longer fits. Or something quieter: a loneliness that persists despite a full life, a hunger for something genuine that the usual channels haven't satisfied. You're not looking for someone to tell you what to do — but someone who can help you see what you can't yet see, and move from there.

Psychoanalytic Therapists
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviors. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behavior is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
