(they/them)
I am a seasoned psychodynamically trained psychotherapist working with individuals and couples on a short term or long term basis dealing with issues related to anxiety, depression, trauma, grief or phase of life. NOTE: I am not accepting couples clients at this time. I have many years experience working in Palliative and End of Life Care, with individuals coping with cognitive issues such as dementia and with adult issues of trauma, substance abuse, recovery, HIV/AIDS and chronic illness. I have a strong specialty working within the LGBTQ community and with End of Life issues surrounding terminal illness, dying, grief and bereavement. I also offer social work care management/advocacy services for individuals and families who are trying to maneuver through the health care system.
We will discuss what brought you to therapy at this time, your goals and objectives

Jamie Trachtenberg is a thoughtful, compassionate listener who has a lot of experience working with people who have Long Covid and other complex energy-limiting illnesses. Jamie’s specific knowledge and experience has been especially helpful for me as I learn more about Long Covid and what it means for me. What I also appreciate is their observations that often result in concrete solutions that help me navigate my new reality.

I'm feeling better. We've been able to discuss things that I haven't told to anyone else. Thanks.

Jamie listened to my concerns and I felt heard. There was intelligence and a bit of humor in this session. Thanks
