Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is an insight-oriented talk therapy based on the premise that one’s family of origin and childhood have a central influence on current personality, behavior, and emotional health. It is rooted in psychoanalytic theory and includes a belief in the unconscious.

Understanding Long-Standing Patterns

This way of working encourages people to investigate and observe the impact of long-standing patterns and psychological conflicts from the past and the ways they affect present challenges and emotional struggles.

The Therapeutic Relationship

In psychodynamic psychotherapy, the relationship between therapist and client itself may elicit relational patterns from the past. A psychodynamic approach encourages self-reflection and self-awareness.
