Getting to know Michael Z Jody

I have been a practicing psychoanalyst and couples counselor for over twenty years. I did my psychoanalytic training at the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis (NPAP) and received my Psychoanalytic License (L.P.) from the University of the State of New York. I have two master’s degrees. I started out as a referral therapist for the Theodore Reik Clinical Center for Psychotherapy (TRCC) and now divide my time between two private practice offices: one at The Washington Square Institute in Manhattan, and the other in the Harold McMahon Medical Center in Amagansett, NY. Call, text, or email me any time.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I have been told by several patients that I am warm, interested, responsive (I am not one of those therapists who says little or nothing), and bring a great deal of humor to my work (when appropriate).

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Every patient brings a different set of needs, abilities, and concerns to our work together. Therefore, I work differently with each patient according to their needs and issues. That said, my sessions are open and friendly and tend to zoom in on both the patient's concerns, and best ways of working on them and addressing them.
