Amy Merbaum Althoff
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA in Psychoanalysis
Life can be hard to manage. If you're dealing with relationship issues, work stress, or the pressures of everyday life, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can work together. We'll look at patterns that keep holding you back and build practical tools to help you create the life you want.
Beyond seeing individual clients, I also work with couples and groups, and I supervise other therapists and trainees in their clinical work.
I'm faculty and a Board member at the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies (CMPS), a leading graduate institute in New York and the only one offering a Master's Degree in Psychoanalysis.
Whether you're looking for short-term support or long-term work, you'll find a welcoming, inclusive environment here.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
My approach to therapy is straightforward — understand what is getting in the way, figure out why, and build a clear path forward. I work with adults, couples, and high-achieving professionals who are ready to make real changes, not just talk about them.
I am Dr. Lyndsay Elliott, a licensed clinical psychologist with a PsyD and a postdoctoral fellowship from UCLA. For over 20 years I have provided evidence-based psychotherapy, psychological evaluations, consultations and expert witness testimony to clients navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, relationship conflict, narcissistic abuse recovery, couples conflict, infertility, reproductive mental health, postpartum depression, family conflict, and major life transitions.
My style is warm and engaged, but also direct. Therapy should be useful — sessions that deliver genuine insight, practical tools, and honest feedback that actually moves the needle. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused intervention, and trauma-informed care, tailoring every treatment plan to each client's specific goals and circumstances.
I am PSYPACT authorized, serving adults and couples via secure telehealth therapy across 40+ states — making expert psychological care accessible wherever you are.
