About Jaime
Jaime Grunfeld is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 17 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and anger, among other concerns. Jaime also addresses relationship and family problems, addictions, grief, and questions around identity and sexuality. Sessions are offered in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
Jaime describes emotional depletion as a common result of loss, trauma, and ongoing pressure. He approaches that by helping people notice what has been worn down and by talking through patterns that leave them feeling stuck. The work often focuses on restoring energy for daily life, work, and relationships rather than quick fixes.
His methods draw on psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused work. That means looking at recurring feelings and past influences, while also setting concrete, short-term goals. People who want both a deeper look at patterns and practical steps tend to find this combination useful.
Jaime brings long-term clinical experience to practical concerns like sleep, parenting stress, career questions, and coping with life changes. He also supports people dealing with complex issues such as mood disorders, personality concerns, and immigration-related stress. The emphasis is on clear, direct conversation and defined goals.
For people exploring therapy from outside the United States, Jaime accepts international clients. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on patterns in feelings and relationships. It helps uncover repeated ways of reacting that can fuel anger, anxiety, or low mood. Sessions look at past influences and present behavior to increase awareness and options.Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, doable changes. It is goal-oriented and useful when someone wants quick strategies to reduce outbursts, manage stress at work, or build better daily routines.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Jaime will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they can try deeper exploration, short-term goal work, or a mix of both depending on progress.
The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can make it simpler to keep appointments during a lunch break, reduce travel time, or choose a quieter moment for a shorter check-in. If you plan to work across time zones or from outside the United States, confirm the available session arrangements before booking so you know which formats and times are offered.
