About Jaime
Jaime Grunfeld uses psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches to help people regain balance. He is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and holds a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, credential. Jaime works in New York and speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
He helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or depression. He also supports those facing life changes, grief, addiction concerns, or difficulties with self-esteem and sexuality. Sessions focus on understanding patterns that repeat in daily life and finding practical steps to feel better.
How Jaime works
Jaime blends looking at personal history with short-term goal work. That means he helps uncover feelings and past influences, while also setting clear goals to solve current problems. Clients can expect a mix of talking about emotions and trying specific strategies for change.
Over 17 years he has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, parenting questions, relationship struggles, career stress, and mood disorders. He also addresses issues like emptiness, family of origin problems, immigration-related stress, and men's issues. Language access is a practical part of his work.
Jaime conducts sessions in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and he accepts international clients. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to find a good fit.
From there clients schedule sessions based on availability and proceed at a pace that feels manageable.

Online support options
How psychodynamic and solution-focused work online
Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences influence current feelings and behaviors. Online sessions let clients talk about recurring patterns and relationships while exploring where those responses began. Solution-focused therapy centers on small, concrete steps that bring relief quickly and build momentum toward goals.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Jaime will discuss goals and preferences with each person, and together they decide whether to lean more into exploring history or into short-term problem solving. That collaborative plan can shift as needs change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation for deeper work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit sessions into work, family, or travel schedules and to continue progress even when routines change.
