Getting to know Elliot Greenebaum
As a licensed psychotherapist with psychoanalytic training, my work focuses on helping patients feel more at peace with their emotional experience and to identify areas where they are blocked - where one's ways of seeing or methods problem-solving would benefit from more flexibility. I also offer a confidential place where one can just talk privately so insights can bubble up on their own.
Everyone has strengths and vulnerabilities that need to be understood for realistic change to occur. In my practice, mapping one's story is important, especially in the way it illuminates your unique needs and challenges, and I pair that with strategies to help you figure out how to thrive in your life, encouraging a sense of agency and resilience.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy from Amherst College and a Master's in Film Production from New York University; I studied therapy at the Psychoanalytic Association of New York, The Freudian Society, and The William Allen White Institute.
Initial consultations with me are free.

I have been seeing Elliot, a truly exceptional therapist and psychoanalyst, for the past three to four years. During this time, Elliot has provided me with an immense amount of support, guidance, and understanding. His remarkable patience, attentiveness, and ability to gently guide me through my mental journey have been instrumental in my personal growth and healing. I wholeheartedly recommend Elliot to anyone seeking a therapist who can expertly balance guidance and self-exploration.

Elliot is a really sensitive and thoughtful therapist, and a great listener. It took me a little while to get used to talking through my issues on a regular basis, but having consistent weekly meetings has a made a huge difference in my life. I feel much better and more confident as a result of my time with him.

Elliot is the best therapist I have ever had. The work really helps me feel grounded and make sense of what's happening in me.

My sessions with Elliot have been massively helpful in allowing me to speak to and better understand a number of events, issues and topics that I have long tried to ignore or to evade in my life. Speaking with Elliot has really benefited my mental health and he has been able to unpack and breakdown several occurrences that had been weighing on me for a number of years in some cases. I have left each session with a different and valued perspective on a wide range of topics which has helped me deal with situations that I have not ever spoken to anyone about. I would highly recommend Elliot for anyone looking for a psychotherapist and my time with him continues to be hugely valuable. Although it took me a few visits to get the hang of therapy sessions I am benefiting from each and every visit. I'd highly recommend Elliot to anyone that is looking to speak to an expert about the impact of addition and substance abuse in particular which is an area he has really helped me with to date.
