Fred Aiese, LCSW, Psychotherapist

I am a psychoanalyst, psychotherapist, and EMDRIA-certified EMDR therapist. Transference refers to the emergent relationship a patient forms with a therapist.
(2)

People seek the services of a psychotherapist for a variety of reasons: difficulties in intimate and family relationships; dissatisfaction with work; reliance on a substance or negative behaviors to manage feelings; or recovery from a traumatic event, just to name the most usual. Paradoxically, all people are different, yet they have many of the same basic concerns in life. About Psychoanalysis…

Sigmund Freud and his followers developed “the talking cure.” They found that as their patients verbalized thoughts and feelings, their symptoms remit. These patients expressed these thoughts and feelings in an extemporaneous, free associative way. Freud and his minions were also interested in the unconscious and how dreams and free associative material were manifestations of the unconscious. Early practitioners also found that transference and the examination of transference also had curative effect on patients. This relationship also takes into account the earlier relationships a patient has and how such early relationships affect a relationship with a therapist. Countertransference refers to the feelings that the therapist has for a patient. In the earliest days of psychoanalysis, countertransference was viewed as an irrelevant, unhelpful byproduct of treatment. Contemporary approaches to psychoanalysis (Modern, Interpersonal, Intersubjective, and Relational) have a vastly different view of the usefulness of countertransference. About EMDR...
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a powerful method of psychotherapy. In 1987, psychologist Francine Shapiro made the observation that eye movements can reduce the intensity of disturbing thoughts and feelings when this method is utilized under certain conditions. These eye movements are administered under a specific clinical practice protocol. EMDR is particularly useful in treating post-traumatic stress, complex grief, panic & anxiety, disturbing memories, phobias, and performance enhancement. EMDR can be used as a sole clinical technique or in combination with traditional therapy approaches.

Addiction: How to Recognize It and What to Do About It

by Fred Aiese, LCSW Addiction to alcohol and other drugs is a chronic disease. It is progressive, continuous, and long-term.

Infidelity and the Restoration of Trust

by Fred Aiese, LCSW Infidelity is more common than most people realize. In fact, it is estimated that 60% of men and 40% of women today will have an extramarital affair during their marriage. I decided to learn as much as I could about it so I could help my clients prevent it, or recover from it when it has already happened. [ 1,279 more word ]

Sweet Forgiveness

by Fred Aiese, LCSW No one gets through life without being hurt by another person. We all have experienced the pain of a thoughtless remark, gossip, or lie. If you have experienced an unhappy marriage, the devastation of infidelity, or suffered physical or emotional abuse, you know what it feels like to be hurt. It is tempting to hold on to these feelings and build a wall of safety around yourself, but the best way to heal is to forgive the person who hurt you. [ 1,131 more word ]

A word to fellow colleagues who are Medicare providers: if you've changed your bank and need to revise electronic funds transfer, be prepared for an arduous, frustrating process. After 4 1/2 months of calls, paperwork, and inane canned music while I wait on the phone, sometimes for as long as 15 minutes, Medicare has yet to update my billing information. Very irritating. I suppose this is an example of federal tax dollars at work
