You've been managing your life through sheer willpower and intellectual strategies, but something deeper is calling for attention. It's time to slow down, understand the unconscious patterns driving your choices, and build authentic connections that support who you're becoming.

Integrative & Practical Approaches
Maybe you’re married, successful, earning well, and living in NYC, the most exciting city in the world. The life around you is buzzing with energy and possibility. New York never stops moving, and neither do you.
But your mind feels elsewhere. Or maybe it’s buzzing too, but in a different way … restless, searching, wondering if something’s wrong with you for not feeling satisfied when everything looks perfect on paper.
You’ve been successful in handling things on your own up to this point, but something deeper is calling for attention.
At Midtown NYC Therapists, we create space for high-functioning New Yorkers to slow down, understand the unconscious patterns driving their choices, and build tools that serve you for decades.
Using Jungian analysis, psychodynamic approaches, and integrative methods, we help you move from managing everything through willpower to making conscious choices from authentic self-understanding.
This restless feeling, this sense that something’s missing despite your success … it’s not a flaw in you. It’s your psyche calling for integration, for the parts of yourself that got left behind in the pursuit of achievement.
In our work together, we slow things down enough to hear what’s actually happening beneath the surface. We explore the unconscious patterns that drive your choices, process the emotions you’ve been managing through willpower alone, and help you build an authentic connection with yourself first, then with others.
This isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level strategies. It’s about developing the emotional and psychological tools that will serve you for decades … the kind of deep work that transforms how you relate to yourself, your relationships, and your purpose in the world.
Our Therapeutic Approaches:
You’ve been successful at managing the external pieces of your life, but something is happening beneath the surface that willpower alone can’t fix. Maybe it’s patterns that keep showing up in your relationships, decisions that don’t align with what you actually want.
Or this nagging sense that you’re performing a version of yourself rather than living authentically.
Through psychodynamic and individual therapy approaches, we explore the unconscious patterns driving these experiences. This isn’t about endless analysis of your past, but about understanding how earlier experiences shape your present choices so you can start making decisions from awareness rather than automatic reaction.
This kind of depth work takes patience, but it creates the foundation for lasting change … the kind that shifts not just your symptoms, but how you show up in the world.
Our Treatment Approaches:
There are parts of yourself that you’ve been avoiding … aspects of your personality that don’t fit the image you’ve built, emotions you’ve learned to suppress, and dreams that feel too strange to take seriously.
In Jungian work, we understand that these disowned parts don’t disappear … they gather energy in your unconscious until they find ways to surface, often through symptoms, relationship conflicts, or that persistent sense that something is missing.
As one of only 3,000 Jungian oriented practitioners worldwide, we bring rare expertise to this in-depth work.
Through shadow integration, dream analysis, and active imagination, we help you reclaim the parts of yourself that have been waiting in the wings. This isn’t just therapy … it’s the journey toward psychological wholeness that Jung called individuation.
This work transforms your relationship with yourself at the deepest level, creating space for authentic self-expression and genuine connection with others.
Jungian Analysis & Shadow Work
Your shadow self is simply the parts of your personality that you've learned to hide or deny.
Your shadow self is simply the parts of your personality that you’ve learned to hide or deny.
The shadow contains everything about yourself that you’ve learned to reject or hide … the anger that doesn’t fit your nice persona, the vulnerability that feels too risky to show, the creativity that seems impractical.
These disowned aspects don’t disappear when ignored; they influence your choices from the unconscious, often creating the very problems you’re trying to avoid. You feel like:
“I keep having the same conflicts in different relationships, and I’m starting to think the problem might be me.”
In Jungian analysis, we explore your projections, work with your dreams, and use active imagination to dialogue with these hidden parts of your psyche. This isn’t about becoming someone different … it’s about becoming more fully who you already are.
Our Tailored Approaches:
Your journey toward psychological wholeness and authentic self-expression can begin today.
Relationship & Connection Work
You might be successful in many areas of your life, but when it comes to intimate connection, something feels stuck.
Whether you’re struggling to communicate without triggering conflict, feeling disconnected from your partner despite living together, or finding yourself repeating the same relationship patterns with different people … these issues often stem from unconscious ways of relating that you learned long before you met your current partner.
Through couples therapy, IFS work, couples emotionally focused therapy, and relationally-focused individual therapy we explore the hidden dynamics that create distance and conflict. This isn’t about learning communication techniques or negotiating who does the dishes.
It’s about understanding what each person brings unconsciously to the relationship and creating space for genuine intimacy to emerge. This work helps you show up authentically in your connections rather than performing versions of yourself that you think others want to see.
Treatment Approaches:
You don’t have to keep struggling with connection alone; your path toward authentic intimacy and meaningful relationships can begin now.
Your Crisis Is Actually an Invitation to Wake Up
What feels overwhelming right now might be your psyche asking for the attention it’s been trying to get for years. Life you’ve been working toward.
Sometimes you need immediate tools to manage symptoms while you’re doing the deeper work. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety that’s interfering with daily functioning, trauma that needs careful processing, or crisis moments that require stabilization … these situations call for approaches that can provide relief and safety alongside the long-term exploration.
Through CBT, trauma processing, and crisis integration work, we address what’s happening in your present while building capacity for the deeper transformational work.
This isn’t about choosing between practical symptom management and depth psychology … it’s about using the right tools at the right time to support your overall healing journey. This integrated approach helps you stay grounded and functional while navigating profound personal change.
Treatment Approaches:
You don’t have to choose between immediate relief and lasting transformation; your path toward integrated healing can start today.
