What is psychodynamic psychotherapy?

​

This type of therapy is based on the work of Freud, using techniques to look at the unconscious. But as time has moved on, so too has the work. We will be exploring your early life and memories, thinking together about how those experiences and the echoes of them shape and, at times, distort the present. This is done through what is essentially a process of deep listening and learning, for both therapist and client. I offer serious and empathetic attention, alert to the details of what makes each person uniquely who they are.

​

The sessions will provide the time, space and compassion needed for change. They will give you opportunity to communicate what you may have struggled to talk about in the past, and help you to recognise and understand unwanted behaviour and patterns of thought.
