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 patients 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 at 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 (2020–2022) and continued there as Senior Psychologist and Director of Business Development (2023–2025). In that capacity, I supervised and trained early-career psychologists, contributed to program development, and played an integral role in the practice’s clinical and organizational growth. 

This experience strengthened my leadership, honed my supervision skills, and deepened 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.
