WHAT WE DO
Treating Individuals, Couples, Families, and Groups in Midtown NYC
In-person and Telehealth services available.
Bryant West Psychology
We work in the tradition of psychoanalysis with a relational focus. We respect the profound nature of many emotional issues and their interpersonal origin in real life, often traumatic, developmental experiences. We seek to understand your unique developmental needs, how they were neglected, hijacked, or violated by essential figures in your life, and social institutions on whom you relied. Therapy - whether individual, couples, or group - is a process of understanding, healing, and growing beyond these deep wounds and over-accommodations, freeing you for the emergence of a life that is more authentically your own.
Our Services
Therapy is best done through an open, intimate relationship with a professional who is dedicated to understanding your unique pain and recognizes your needs for safety and emotional validation. It creates the space for the emergence of greater self-expression, agency, and growth, allowing you to be more fully engaged and alive to yourself and to others.
Individual Therapy
Together with your therapist, you will explore self-defeating internalized messages and patterns of behavior.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy aims to increase constructive engagement around conflict areas to restore trust, vitality, sexuality, and growth in relationships.
Group Therapy
Group therapy helps participants understand themselves, their reactions, and their impact on others by connecting group issues to real-life struggles

Money Matters
At Bryant West Psychology, money is discussed openly and transparently. We recognize the deep emotional issues often tied to money (power, dependency, control, greed, self-esteem/shame, etc.). So we strive to be upfront in our approach to money. We will explore the impact of fees on our relationship with you as such issues emerge, and keep the dialogue open (as with any other issue in psychotherapy).
