Dr. Alyssa Deitchman

With over 11 years of clinical experience and advanced training at leading psychodynamic institutes, I specialize in individual and couples therapy grounded in contemporary psychoanalytic theory. My work is tailored to the unique needs of each person, helping clients move toward greater self-understanding, emotional well-being, and more fulfilling relationships.

I began my career on a full scholarship to NYU, where I earned a B.S. in Applied Psychology, conducted research, and worked in community clinics. I later completed my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the Derner School of Advanced Psychological Studies, deepening my expertise in the intersection of research and practice.

Following my doctoral training, I completed a post-doctoral fellowship at a mid-sized group practice in New York City from 2020 to 2022, where I continued on as a Senior Psychologist and Director of Business Development from 2023 to 2025. 

In this role, I provided clinical supervision and training to early-career psychologists, helped shape program development, and contributed to the overall growth and operational success of the practice. This experience deepened my expertise not only as a clinician but also as a leader, reinforcing my commitment to fostering excellence, collaboration, and thoughtful innovation within the field of psychotherapy.

At the heart of my approach is a motivation to help people explore how they navigate their inner lives and their connections with others. I strive to create a therapeutic space that fosters depth, insight, and connection.
