PSYCHODYNAMIC PSYCHOTHERAPY

I specialize in psychodynamic or depth psychotherapy, a therapeutic approach focused on uncovering the unconscious influences behind your emotions and behaviors. By gaining deeper insight into the root causes of your distress, you can open up new ways of experiencing and reacting to life. Here’s what sets psychodynamic therapy apart:

• Emotional Expression: Emphasizes expressing and understanding your emotions.

• Defensive Structures: Explores psychological strategies you use to avoid distressing thoughts or feelings.

• Recurring Themes: Identifies recurring patterns in your inner experiences and relationships.

• Childhood Influences: Examines how your childhood has shaped your current self-view.

• Interpersonal Relationships: Enhances meaningful relationships using feedback from our therapeutic interactions.

• Fantasy Life and Creativity: Delves into dreams, imagination, and creative expressions to access symbolic material from your unconscious.

Studies have shown that psychodynamic psychotherapy leads to ongoing improvement even after therapy ends, thanks to the lasting impact of the insights gained. For more on its efficacy, read this review article.
