Dr Luis Nagy

Psychoanalyst

“International Certified Psychoanalyst in private practice with +20 years of clinical experience. Absolute confidentiality.”

About Me

With over twenty years in private practice, I offer psychoanalysis. I help individuals explore long-standing emotional patterns. In our absolutely confidential sessions, we delve into complex feelings and recurring challenges. This approach suits those seeking profound, lasting insight into their inner world, fostering meaningful change.

Approach

Decades of clinical practice shape a focused, patient rhythm in which we gently name patterns and trace their origins. I meet with adolescents, adults, couples and older clients in Arcadia or by secure online sessions, conducting work in English, Mandarin or Spanish to suit your needs. Sessions move between close listening, reflective interpretation and exploration of dreams and relational dynamics; occasionally I offer short observations or exercises to try between meetings. Those seeking deeper understanding of persistent patterns often find this pace helpful.
