Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
When a severe depression, a paralysing anxiety, or a deep sense of emptiness strikes, it unfortunately colours an entire existence.
The road is longer and the pace is slower, but the results are much more significant and enduring
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy (also known as psychodynamic psychotherapy) is most useful for those struggling with painful feelings, thoughts, or behaviours that are not limited to one part of their lives. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy has a broader focus than brief psychotherapy. The road is longer and the pace is slower, but the results are much more significant and enduring.
With the support of the psychotherapist, you can begin to speak those parts of your life that have been causing you the most trouble. As you do so, you begin to hear them differently. You also begin to think and experience them in ways that hadn't been obvious or possible before.
Gradually, with more understanding and a richer experience, you can clarify the reasons and patterns for your feelings. You're in a better position to draw on your strengths and assets to help you where you need them the most
This work will help loosen the hold that earlier experiences and relationships have had on your present. It will give you an ability to develop new ways of relating and experiencing. It will give you access to a more meaningful and richer life.
