SUSAN HEIN (She/Her)

As a seasoned psychoanalyst practicing psychodynamic psychotherapy, in private practice, I deal with issues of depression, anxiety, relationship and social life problems, aging, marital conflicts, parenting (including adoption related issues,) divorce, loss, spousal and/or family member's dementia, etc... My practice includes adults of all ages -- individuals and couples -- from the young to the elderly. My clinical experience includes people from varying backgrounds and fields -- including the creative arts, law, media, education and adults either in transition, or returning to school, as well as those who are stay-at-home mothers or fathers. I offer therapy in an emotionally safe environment, working collaboratively towards increased understanding and resolution of conflicts within awareness -- as well as those issues and conlicts that are less conscious -- that interfere with happiness.

My approach is underscored with respect, recognition, and appreciation of the duality inherent in the therapist-client relationship.

Besides being a psychotherapist, I founded and ran a creative arts preschool and afterschool program for ten years, taught in NYC public schools and currently teach at the undergraduate college level. This, plus being a parent and grandparent enhances my psychotherapeutic skills, as I bring a wide breadth of understanding to the myriad of conflicts and difficulties encountered in life.

Currently, I am accepting new clients. Most of my work with clients is virtual. I accept OON and will present a Super Bill if needed. I am In Network with a few companies and offer a low fee sliding scale for self pay.
