Dr Gerald Gargiulo

Psychoanalyst

I am a psychoanalyst/psychotherapist and have dedicated my professional life (40 yr +) to helping individuals feel real, loving & effective

About Me

Drawing on over 40 years of experience, I offer a space where you can truly explore yourself. My aim is to help you uncover inner dynamics, fostering a profound sense of authenticity. We can work together to understand what prevents you from feeling real, loving, and effective. This collaborative process helps individuals connect deeply with themselves. It leads to lasting change and greater freedom in daily life.

Approach

To foster the authenticity you’ve described, I listen for the hidden patterns that shape your moods, choices, and close ties, then name them plainly so change feels possible. From Stamford or online in English, sessions are paced to match your tolerance for depth—steady exploration one week, focused work or practical experiments the next. We trace anxieties, identity struggles, and relational habits through careful reflection, occasional clarifying interpretation, and tasks between sessions when helpful. Adults and couples who want thoughtful, disciplined companionship in change tend to find this approach useful.
