About Augusta

LCSW-R in New York with 30 years of clinical experience, Augusta Wellington focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. She works primarily from a psychodynamic perspective and describes her work as insight-oriented psychotherapy. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts clients from outside the United States.

Augusta helps people talk through attachment and abandonment wounds. She addresses communication problems, isolation and social anxiety, and the emotional fallout from divorce or separation. She also works with issues around guilt, shame, sexuality, and self-love. Her practice includes attention to mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, midlife transitions, and problems linked to narcissistic dynamics.

Her approach centers on understanding patterns that repeat in relationships and daily life. In sessions she looks for how early experiences and unconscious expectations shape current feelings and choices. Conversations aim to make those patterns clearer, so a person can try different responses and notice what changes.

Augusta trained in psychoanalysis at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research and is a Fellow of the International Psychoanalytic Association. She holds the credential LCSW-R and brings three decades of work in clinical settings to her practice.

Psychodynamic work and online sessions

Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on discovering repeated relationship patterns and unconscious expectations. It helps when people feel stuck by habits in relationships, persistent anxiety, or recurring mood shifts by making those patterns clearer and open to change.

Augusta practices insight-oriented psychotherapy that uses reflective conversation to track feelings, memories, and reactions. This approach is useful for concerns like attachment wounds, intimacy difficulties, shame, and mood disorders because it links present-day experience to earlier influences.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Augusta will work with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and she adjusts the pace and focus as understanding grows.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions fit into workdays more easily, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can offer a consistent setting for steady, reflective work that fits around daily commitments.
