Professional Consultation

Dr. Applebaum offers professional consultation for fully licensed clinicians who are interested in deepening their work and learning more about psychoanalytic theory and practice.

The process of thinking together about cases and how you are working is a creative and organic process, meant to expand your emotional and mental capacity. Mentorship is a crucial part of good work, whether in private practice or a clinic setting. When the complexity of a case can be held and felt with another, this often creates more flexibility of mind and a sense of a team approach to challenging issues. While you maintain responsibility for cases discussed and any decisions made about them, consultation is an opportunity to seek a second opinion and address impasses that have made it difficult for you and your patient/client to move forward.
