Remote therapy with psychodynamic and solution-focused methods
Jaime Grunfeld offers online sessions that pair psychodynamic exploration with solution-focused techniques. In psychodynamic work he helps clients examine recurring emotional patterns and the deeper influences that shape feelings and relationships. This approach is presented as a reflective collaboration intended for those who want to understand how past and present experiences inform current struggles.
Solution-focused work emphasizes concrete goals and practical steps. In these sessions Jaime and the client identify strengths, set achievable targets, and track small changes that move daily functioning forward. Many people find the two approaches complementary: reflective inquiry for underlying meaning, paired with focused actions to address immediate concerns.
Remote options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats are used to match different preferences and rhythms, and to support ongoing collaboration regardless of location. Sessions are conducted in English, Spanish, or Portuguese.
