About Jaime
Jaime Grunfeld is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 17 years of clinical experience in New York. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and questions about identity and sexuality. He also lists family of origin issues among his areas of focus alongside grief, parenting concerns, addictions, and career worries.
He uses a psychodynamic approach to help people notice how early relationships and repeated patterns affect current feelings and behavior. He also draws on solution-focused techniques to identify practical steps and short-term goals. Sessions are conversational and aim to clarify what keeps problems repeating and what might break those cycles.
Jaime often helps people who feel stuck by looking at internal patterns that feed shame, emptiness, or anger. He pays attention to how expectations from upbringing shape choices and relationships. Work can include talking through painful memories, testing new ways of responding, and setting small achievable goals.
He offers services in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and has experience with multicultural and immigration-related concerns. His background includes helping people with midlife transitions, fatherhood questions, and career crossroads, as well as mood disorders and intimacy-related issues.
Practical matters are part of the process. Sessions focus on clear goals and observable changes alongside deeper reflection. Prospective clients are invited to confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How psychodynamic and solution-focused work translate to online sessions
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeated feelings and relationship patterns that began in earlier life. Online sessions can use conversation to track how those patterns show up now and test different ways of responding. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical changes and clear goals you can try between sessions.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to balance deeper pattern work with goal-oriented steps based on what the client needs and prefers. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses and adjusted when useful.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so therapy can be attended from a convenient place. Sessions conducted remotely still focus on the same therapeutic aims - understanding recurring family patterns, reducing distressing symptoms, and trying new behaviors between meetings.
