Getting to know Amy Merbaum Althoff

Life is complex, and navigating it alone can feel overwhelming. Whether you're struggling with relationships, career pressure, or the weight of modern daily life, I offer a collaborative, nonjudgmental space to help you move forward. Together, we’ll identify the repetitive patterns holding you back and develop functional strategies to build the life you actually want. I offer a supportive, inclusive space for both short-term resets and long-term healing. No matter your background or what you’re walking through, you’re welcome here. In addition to my clinical work with individuals, couples, groups and as a supervisor to therapists and trainees, I serve on the faculty and Board of Trustees at the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies (CMPS)—a premier NY State Licensure-Qualifying Institute and the only graduate school in New York to offer a Master's Degree in Psychoanalysis. After a first appointment is scheduled through Zocdoc, I will contact you before confirming the appointment for a brief telephone call.
