Many clients come to us because they feel stuck, flat, or are repeating patterns in work, love, and life. It can feel like something inside is misfiring, even if you can’t name it or explain why.
Our work helps you understand the roots of your experience—how early relationships, unconscious beliefs, and long-standing emotional patterns may be shaping how you feel today.
It’s about depth, meaning, and lasting change. Or it’s about the deeper forces shaping behavior, not just managing symptoms.
We offer a reasonably priced, private-pay model. This means:
Our therapists receive rigorous post-graduate psychoanalytic training. Many bring prior careers, diverse life experiences, and rich cultural perspectives to their work.
This isn’t an overnight change, but it’s meaningful, sustainable, and deep.

For over 50 years, TRCC has offered high-quality, affordable psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis to the New York community.
Founded in 1949 by the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis (NPAP), TRCC embodies our mission to make psychoanalytic treatment more accessible. Every therapist at TRCC receives advanced clinical training through NPAP’s rigorous education program, grounded in both classical and contemporary psychoanalytic theory and practice.
Psychoanalytic therapy helps people address their concerns while understanding how their past affects how they feel and act today. Therapists trained in these approaches address client concerns through looking at deep patterns, thoughts, and feelings that might not be easy to see at first. This kind of therapy helps people make sense of their emotions and feel more in control of their lives.
TRCC is a sliding-scale treatment service located in the West Village and serves as the training clinic for NPAP. TRCC is staffed by therapists who are in training in psychoanalysis at NPAP.
