Dr John Silver

Psychoanalyst

“Journey together into your Unconscious. We specialize in In-Depth Therapy which seeks the root cause of your Psychological Issues using Certified Modern Psychoanalysis and Existential Analysis. We use your Curiosity and Intelligence to explore and find the Real You.”

About Me

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and psychoanalyst in Los Angeles, California. I treat relationship, identity, and sexual concerns with focused psychoanalytic work. I offer confidential online sessions that help you understand patterns and improve connections.

Approach

I invite you to follow threads of curiosity into the beneath-the-surface material that shapes your choices and attachments. In confidential, English-language sessions offered from West Los Angeles and online, I keep a steady pace—attentive listening, timely reflection, and space for silence—so we can trace how identity and desire show up in relationships. Work often moves between interpretation, clarifying patterns, and practical reflection between sessions to test new ways of relating. This pace suits adults seeking deeper clarity about identity, sexuality, and connection.
