About Jaime
Jaime Grunfeld is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and holds a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) credential. He brings 17 years of clinical experience and focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, depression, and major life changes.
Jaime uses conversation to help people notice patterns that drain their energy. He talks with clients about feelings tied to loss, trauma, or difficult relationships. He aims to help people regain interest in work and connection with others.
In sessions Jaime draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape present feelings. He also uses solution-focused strategies to identify small, practical steps that can lead to change. These approaches are used together to both understand problems and find ways forward.
He has experience addressing a wide range of concerns including addiction, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting and fatherhood questions, cultural and immigration matters, mood disorders, and issues around sexuality. Jaime also supports people coping with guilt, shame, emptiness, and compassion fatigue.
Jaime works in New York and communicates in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. His dual licensure is NY LMHC and NJ LPC. To start, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How psychodynamic and solution-focused work translate to online therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy helps people look at how past relationships and experiences influence current feelings and behavior. Online sessions can be used to reflect on recurring patterns, emotional reactions, and sources of emptiness or shame. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying specific goals and trying small, manageable changes. In virtual work this often means setting clear, short-term tasks between sessions to test what helps with sleep, stress, or daily routines.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your needs, discuss goals, and together decide whether more insight-focused or action-oriented work - or a mix of both - fits best. This partnership helps tailor sessions to what matters most to the client, including sleep and rest concerns.
Check which session formats Jaime currently offers before booking to confirm how you will meet. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep continuity of care when they are traveling or living abroad. Ask about language options and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions match your routine and goals.
