About Jaime
LMHC and LPC in New York with 17 years of experience, Jaime Grunfeld helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, and parenting concerns. He works in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and accepts international clients. Jaime combines psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches to address mood, trauma, sexuality, and life-direction questions.
Jaime sees how loss, trauma, and anxiety can drain emotional resources. He uses psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns rooted in earlier relationships and life events. He also uses solution-focused work to set small, practical changes that move someone toward clearer goals.
Sessions tend to look at what keeps a problem repeating and what can be tried differently right away. Conversations cover emotions, family of origin themes, career and fatherhood issues, and cultural or immigration-related concerns. He also addresses grief, postpartum mood struggles, anger, and confusion about sexuality.
Jaime draws on experience with people facing burnout and compassion fatigue, as well as those managing bipolar and other mood disorders. He pays attention to shame, guilt, and narcissistic dynamics when they affect daily life and relationships. Practical steps and short-term goals are balanced with deeper reflection on recurring patterns.
People can expect straightforward discussion about goals, what to try between sessions, and regular check-ins on progress. The combination of psychodynamic exploration and solution-focused tasks is used to help clarify priorities and reduce what gets in the way of day-to-day functioning.

How Jaime uses psychodynamic and solution-focused work online
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring emotional patterns and how past relationships influence current feelings. Online sessions use conversation to notice patterns, feelings, and family of origin themes that shape behavior and mood.Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical changes and steps that can be tried between sessions. This approach is useful for clients who want clear goals, quick adjustments, and measurable progress on specific problems like stress, coping, or career decisions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jaime will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and then suggest whether deeper exploration, short-term goal work, or a mix of both makes the most sense. That decision is made together and adjusted as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, and support regular check-ins. It also allows brief focused sessions or longer exploratory sessions depending on what the client and therapist agree will be most useful.
