Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
Experiences associated with schizophrenia can profoundly affect one’s sense of self and self-in-relationships; but these experiences do not erase the person having them. I approach psychosis with respect and curiosity, attending not only to symptoms but to the emotional meanings, relationships and fears surrounding them. Psychoanalytic therapy can provide a steady relationship in which experiences that may feel fragmented, frightening, or difficult to communicate can gradually be put into words and thought about together. When appropriate, this work can take place alongside psychiatric care and other supports, with the aim of helping you feel more grounded, understood, and connected to yourself and to other people.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Losing touch with reality is more complicated than just trying to realign oneself with the external environment. To understand this experience, one must work to appreciate the subjective realities that illuminate these challenges.

Elizabeth is New Jersey's fourth-largest city and one of its most densely populated and ethnically diverse communities, a port city in Union County with a long history of immigrant settlement that today is home to large Dominican, Puerto Rican, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Haitian, and other Latin American and Caribbean communities, alongside significant West African populations. The city has a high poverty rate and limited private therapy infrastructure, and the most pressing mental health needs are often addressed through emergency and community health channels. Multilingual care—in Spanish, Haitian Creole, and other languages—is essential, and bilingual and bicultural therapists who understand the specific experiences of recent immigrants, refugees, and documentation-insecure communities are in consistent demand. Common therapy concerns include immigration trauma, family separation, economic stress, anxiety, depression, and the compounding psychological challenges of navigating life in a dense urban community with limited resources and significant systemic barriers.
