Dr. Piccolo is a licensed psychologist and certified psychoanalyst (IPA) practicing in Manhattan’s Flatiron District. Shaped by both European and American training, his work proceeds from the conviction that much of mental life unfolds beyond the threshold of awareness.

Frequently Asked Questions
Seeing a therapist can help you better understand your emotions, behaviors, and thought patterns. Whether you’re facing specific challenges or just seeking personal growth, a therapist offers guidance to help you manage stress, improve relationships, and develop healthier coping strategies.
Therapy involves open, confidential conversations with a trained professional where you explore your thoughts, feelings, and concerns. Together, we’ll identify goals and work through challenges using proven techniques tailored to your needs. Sessions provide a safe space to gain insight, develop coping strategies, and make positive changes.
The frequency of therapy sessions depends on your individual goals and the level of depth you want to reach. Typically, people start with weekly sessions, which may increase if you opt for a full psychoanalysis.
Psychoanalysis is one of the oldest treatment modalities in mental health. It is a form of “talk therapy” conducted in collaboration with a trained professional, allowing you to explore spontaneous thoughts, emotions, and mixed feelings in a safe, supportive environment. The goal is to uncover aspects of your unconscious life that may not be immediately visible to you. This process fosters clarity, helps identify trauma, and supports the development of alternative paths forward, ultimately facilitating positive change. A hallmark of psychoanalysis is the patient lying on a couch—much like in The New Yorker comic strips—and attending sessions multiple times a week.
