How does it work?
In psychoanalytic psychotherapy the therapist helps
you understand the conscious and unconscious origins of
your present difficulties. This is done through exploring
together your thoughts, feelings, anxieties, memories,
dreams and fantasies. The therapy takes place over time,
in a safe, confidential and reliable setting. This gives
you an opportunity to see how forgotten aspects of your
early life and childhood patterns of relating find themselves
repeated in the relationship with your therapist, and
with other people in your life, in a way that is unhelpful
to you. With the skilled understanding and support of
your therapist, you can become aware of what is being
repeated from the past, how you might leave this behind,
and understand and accept yourself better.
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy requires considerable
time and commitment from both the therapist and the
patient, but the rewards can be substantial and enduring.
