Psychoanalysis & Psychodynamic Therapy

Deep, long-term work that takes your past and present seriously.

45 minutes

Psychoanalysis takes into account both your past and your present. It is a deeper, longer-term form of treatment for those who want to understand the roots of their patterns, not only manage their symptoms.

Led by Dr. Rachna Kenia, a board-certified psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, this work explores the life patterns that quietly shape how you feel, think, and relate, so that real, lasting change becomes possible.

  • Led by a board-certified psychiatrist & psychoanalyst
  • Explores past and present together
  • For lasting, structural change
  • Culturally attuned to the South Asian experience

Common questions

Psychoanalysis is typically deeper and longer-term, with a strong focus on understanding unconscious patterns and early experience. Talk therapy can be more focused on present-day concerns.

If you have tried shorter-term approaches and want to understand the deeper roots of your patterns, psychoanalytic work may be a good fit. A consultation is the best way to decide.

You deserve to be deeply understood.
