Usage Note

Psicanalista uses the simplified Italian spelling psicanalisi (alongside the fuller psicoanalisi), both accepted. Like all -ista nouns, it is invariable in the singular but changes in the plural by gender: gli psicanalisti (m) / le psicanaliste (f). The initial ps- cluster is fully pronounced.

Examples

"La psicanalista ascolta i suoi pazienti."

Natural Translation

The psychoanalyst listens to her patients.
