Every day is a struggle. Painful memories and overwhelming emotions make it difficult to accomplish anything. Some days, the thought of just getting out of bed is too much to bear. You never know what will trigger distress and anxiety, so you avoid people and unpredictable situations. But, as a result, your life keeps getting smaller and smaller. Relationships are becoming distant and filled with conflict. You wonder why you’re unable to get over those painful events from your past. You blame yourself for still struggling this way. If only there were someone you could talk to and help you make sense of what you’re experiencing.

I work at Archive, a company that seeks to bring depth therapy – also known as “psychodynamic” or “ psychoanalytic” therapy – to as many people as possible, as well as contributing to the refinement and evolution of the practice of therapy.
I offer depth therapy; a powerful, evidence-based form of therapy for fostering reflection, inspiration, and personal growth. Through depth therapy, you can find a greater sense of calm – the feeling of inner security and stability; more joy – the mental space to enjoy things more, to appreciate, to laugh, to be curious; and connection – deeper relationships, a sense of your ancestry and legacy and your place in stories that started before you and which shaped who you are.

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.
