Steven Seidman, Ph.D
Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst

Client Information

I work with a wide range of clients. Many are in creative fields such as theatre and film or the visual arts and music. Many struggle with issues of personal authenticity and realizing their potential. Like most of us, many clients experience tension and distress in their closest relationships, finding themselves entangled in intimate knots that seem to sabotage a loving companionship. One of my strengths as a person and therapist is that I am aware of the ordinariness and strangeness of all of our lives, the ways we struggle with being insiders and outsiders and with feelings of belonging and integrity. In our work, we aim to grasp the unique psychic drama’s that give your life its special aliveness, but also pose challenges and at times triggers overwhelming feelings of sadness or loneliness or debilitating anxieties. I work with clients of varied genders, sexualities, races, and ages.

 

FEE

Fees are agreed to in our initial consultation. For low-income clients, and for those interested in psychoanalysis (2 or more sessions per week), I offer a sliding scale. The initial consultation is free.

I am a provider for Cigna and Blue Cross, Blue Shield. I will work with you to obtain out-of-network benefits as well.
