Dr. Matthew Paldy, PhD, LP

I’m a licensed psychoanalyst and psychotherapist with PhD in Management and Organizational Psychology — the study of how people think, feel, and interact in groups and organizations. I have extensive training in understanding human behavior, relationships, and the complexities of our emotional lives.

I completed my academic studies at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Stony Brook University, and the University of Rhode Island before pursuing six years of postdoctoral psychoanalytic training at the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis (NPAP) and the Theodor Reik Clinical Center in Manhattan.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked and consulted for many organizations including Chase, Simon & Schuster, UBS/Credit Suisse, CIBC World Markets, The College Board, Kaplan Test Prep, and the NYC Department of Education's iLearn Program. I taught management and leadership in colleges and universities, led teacher-training programs for NYC public schools, and developed the Critical Thinking Program for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Today, I draw on this my broad life experience to help people navigate their challenges, understand themselves more deeply, and feel seen and supported. I offer a welcoming space where we can work together to better understand your story and move your life forward in meaningful new ways.
