Tracy Sidesinger, PsyD, is a clinical psychologist bilocated between Flatbush, Brooklyn and Upstate New York. She earned her doctorate from Fuller Theological Seminary in California, studying the intersection of psychology, religion, and attachment; while working in multiple hospital and substance abuse settings. From there she went on to study Jungian and Relational psychoanalysis in New York at the Jungian Psychoanalytic Association and The William Alanson White Institute, respectively. Deeply influenced by the realities of motherhood, she transitioned her focus from institutional settings to community-based work; and when her private practice office was broken into by those who needed a place to stay during the Covid-19 pandemic, she set out to reinstate the longstanding vision of psychoanalysis for relevant, accessible care for all. She is co-founder of The New York Center for Community Psychoanalysis, an emerging nonprofit psychotherapy clinic in Flatbush, Brooklyn which exists as a matter of social justice and equity. She also serves as the Psychotherapy Action Network’s representative to the Mental Health Liaison Group, a nationwide policy group which advocates for equitable mental health resources through legislative means. Passionate about visual arts, she serves on the board of directors for the Museum of Motherhood in St. Petersburg, FL as artist residency coordinator. Her writing challenges gender norms in culture and psychoanalysis, including a recent essay “The Feminine Yes: Return Me To Excess” published in Studies in Gender and Sexuality; and an essay in the edited volume Race, Rage, and Resistance: Philosophy, Psychology, and the Perils of Individualism (Routledge, 2019) entitled "The Nasty Woman: Destruction and the Path to Mutual Recognition." She has also been invited to speak across the country on the new frontier of psychoanalysis from a feminist critical, community-based lens. She is currently working on a collection of essays bridging psychoanalytic insight, interviews, and memoir to bear on the topic of feminine knowing. You can follow her work on IG @nycdepthpsychologist.
