Psychoanalytic Therapists in Millburn, NJ
Integrating psychoanalytic, psychodynamic and behavioral techniques can allow for greater self expansion.
People are searching to connect with themselves and others in ways that often feel unreachable. These difficulties can get expressed through repetitive, dissatisfying attachments and frustrating patterns of connectedness. Initimacy while longed for, seems illusive. In my 30 years of working with addictive and attachment related issues, I have come to understand how one's sense of aloneness and isolation can prevent a feeling of hopefulness and possibility. It is my belief that supportive, interactive and relational psychotherapy and/or psychoanalysis can offer profound change and relief in helping one manage their deepest conflicts and achieve greater fulfillment.

I have served on the adjunct faculty of NYU School of Social Work; participated in a training project with Hunter and Fordham Schools of Social Work & National Center for Social Work Trauma Education and Workforce Development; have additional training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy and psychoanalytic treatment of addictions; am an accredited supervisor.
It requires courage and commitment to engage in psychotherapy because it is not a treatment process with a quick resolution. I recognize that telling me important personal information about your experience - perhaps experience about which you will communicate for the first time - may feel very uncomfortable. Psychotherapy will only work if I can help you feel safe enough to talk about what matters so that together we can identify what is getting in the way of you making progress toward your life objectives.

I treat individuals, couples, and families, spanning from childhood through adulthood. Therapy can be useful when we are experiencing life as painful, confusing or challenging, no matter the reason. Many live with feelings of sadness, loss, disorientation, isolation and diminished self-worth. Exploring those feelings and troubling symptoms in a safe environment with a caring, experienced professional, can serve to motivate us to identify patterns that stand in our way, be curious about and understand ourselves, all of which can lead to making meaningful and needed changes.

Relationships are complicated and often very stressful and upsetting. I work with people who are grappling to communicate better with the most important people in their lives. Wanting to be heard, understood, supported and loved is human nature. This can sometimes be a challenge without outside, neutral help. Misunderstandings often can get in the way of intimate relationships, leaving each person feeling alone, disillusioned and their actions misconstrued. I see my job as someone who can help navigate these confusing dynamics and openly talk about the possible underlying feelings that led to these behaviors in the first place.

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.
