Getting to know Nathaniel Cunningham

I work with creatives, academics, business and tech professionals to solve the internal issues that hold them back. I help people to decrease anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, obsessive symptoms, to break through creative blocks or address relationship and parenting issues, amongst many other challenges that impact well-being. Many began therapy with me because they felt overwhelmed by conflicts with their partner; others struggled with a chronic sense of anxiety or dissatisfaction. For some, the reason for seeking therapy was difficult to put into words — but something was off and they knew they wanted more out of life. I have a Master’s Degree from New York University and graduated from the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies (CMPS). As part of this education, I worked at St. Mary’s Center Harlem, a residential HIV/AIDS facility. These experiences underscored the importance of considering each person as utterly unique, rather than as reducible to a diagnosis or set of symptoms. I am also a member of the Society of Modern Psychoanalysis (SMP), National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis (NAAP), and Division 39 of the American Psychological Association (APA).

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is best suited for individuals and couples who are curious about their inner life and seek more than quick answers. I will work with you to understand why you feel, think, and respond the way that you do. Together, we will consider your history and how unconscious patterns may influence your present circumstances. By helping you to gain a more complete picture of your life, we can open up new possibilities for your future.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My approach is exploratory and non-directive. I provide a space where you are encouraged to speak freely and reflect on whatever comes to mind. In my experience, this method helps people to discover new possibilities for connection, purpose, and vitality. At the heart of my approach is the belief that each of us carry a profound and powerful wish to live a meaningful life — to find value in our work and in our relationships. My hope is that therapy will help you reconnect with this wish and, over time, give it a shape that feels true to who you are.
