You can easily do this by grabbing onto one of the suits in the Main Lab area of medical. grab onto a leg of the suit, then "throw" it with kinesis. For some reason this just unlocks the trophy / achievement, and is the easiest way to get it.
I can confirm this works! Just unlocked with no problems at all using this method after trying to do it "legit" for about 30 minutes!

Here to confirm that this indeed works. However, May take a couple tries of “throwing” for it to unlock. Unlocked on the 4th Kinesis grab.

I can also confirm this worked. It's a shame because I'm sure they intended this to be a "quick" way to rip a limb off and use TK more often but it just doesn't seem to work as intended.

Managed this in chapter 2 after blowing up the barricade, as you can save afterwards before triggering a necromorph that drops down as you get close to the entrance.
The key to this is to do damage along the limb without hitting the exposed boney parts. Use a pulse rifle (not upgraded) to expose the bone and try to grab it with kinesis when you think you've done enough damage. Ideally find a save point close to a necromorph spawn to cut down attempts and on a regular enemy, not the leaping dogs or the three testicle baby's.
Don't use the plasma cutter as it will sever the limb instead of damaging it!

I haven't hopped onto the remake yet...did they fundamentally change the babies? Because that's a horrifying visual!

Chapter 2
Immediately after your first Zero Gravity section (with all the beds in a circular-ish room) you'll land and end up in a store room of sorts, look to the right and you'll see some suits just hanging there
Simply grab the suit leg with your Kinesis and "throw" (fire) the leg, for some reason this works on the hanging suites

This other solutions and videos are correct about where to shoot, and what to shoot with. Shoulder joint, stock pulse rifle, BUT something that I found was causing me an issue is when I hit the enemy with Stasis (NG+, Fully Upgraded) it damaged it just enough to where the last hit that should put it into the dangling animation was skipped due to too much damage being applied. I tested it by hitting the ground instead of the necromorph directly, as far away as possible but still enough to affect it, and was able to get it into the animation. Also note that for me, there was a specific sound and blood squirted out of the limb I was holding with kenesis when I successfully got it correct. I was on Hard difficulty with a stock pulse rifle. Location was immediately after blowing up the barricade in chapter 2. Before going toward the door, save and farm using reloads.
This guide is for those of us who passed beyond the point where the empty suits from the other solutions stop appearing. After a fair bit of trial and error, I managed to come up with a way that makes this achievement way easier. I've prepared a very short gameplay clip with no preamble that shows exactly how to do it with minimal effort, but first I'll tell you what to prepare ahead of your attempt to make it as smooth as possible.
Now, as you'll see in the clip here what I did was I used Stasis and froze an enemy Slasher, then I quickly moved behind it and opened fire with my Pulse Rifle. The difficulty you are on and how upgraded your rifle is determines how many shots it will take, I am playing on Hard mode, and as you can see I made 7 shots to the left leg. Then I began to spam my Kinesis pull on the leg a few times to test if it was loose yet, before making one more and then successfully pulling the leg right off the body.
The key here is to make several shots and then begin pulling at the leg with Kinesis after every subsequent shot. A quick tap to your trigger will fire one shot at a time making it far easier to judge how much more until you can remove the limb. Another key point is that I am going after the leg, not the arm. The leg is a meatier body part to hit, and so is easier to shoot without missing too many shots in a tense situation. I spent over an hour trying to pull the claw off, and the arm off, but decided to go for the leg instead and got it in one try.
- Save your game and poke around the area until you find a reliable Slasher type enemy spawn. These are the upright humanoid Necromorphs with two claw arms. The spitter variants of these will also work, but we need something bipedal.
- Grab the Pulse Rifle weapon, preferably one that is NOT UPGRADED as the weaker it is the more precise in how many shots you need to take for a successful break. You can likely use the Plasma Cutter but make sure it does not have the fire upgrade, as that burns the limb off before you can grab it!
- Refill your Stasis(time stop) energy, bring an extra recharge for it if you think you might need it.

Chapter 4: Mission "Reroute Power from water Purification"
*midway through the chapter*
after rerouting power for the ADS cannons, in which you take an elevator down to level 2 then 3. The next task will take you to Floor 5, so instead of heading down the elevator from the bridge you'll be taking the elevator up to the 5th floor from the bridge.
From there you'll see a mysterious man appear some feet in front of you and run down the hall saying "make us whole" once you fallow that dude past a save point are greated by a nechromorph and the big fat one, you'll pass down a hallway of fans spinning above. The objective will take you right to a room : " Eva Prep room" labeld above the door frame ...
In this room has those suits , simply use your force powers and pull one if the suits legs and throw it as if your tossing the limb. Then boom unlock...
*at least by the time of this post, this may change*

This achievement is a bit of a pain, and can be a little hit-or-miss. The easiest way we’ve found to get it is after obtaining the Force Gun. Wait until you’re one-on-one with a necromorph, and use the Force Gun once, up close, to strip them down to the bare bone. Then, try to use Kinesis on the Necromorph. If nothing happens, shoot at one of its legs with the Plasma Cutter to weaken the limb further, and try Kinesis again. Continue this approach until either a) Kinesis does actually manage to pull off a limb, and the achievement pops, or b) the Necromorph dies, oops!
This can be difficult to get, as it seems to require a limb to be severely weakened, but not yet dismembered, and it’s difficult to find the right balance. That’s why the Force Gun makes this much easier, but not quite bullet proof. It’s doable though - we managed it within just a few minutes of getting the Force Gun, after multiple failed attempts before that.
