Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy is a kind of therapy that provides you with an awareness of yourself and your life.[1] Psychodynamic roots are based in Freudian, Jungian, and other prominent innovators.2]
This therapy is meant for those of you that want to dig deep and evolve.[3]
It requires patience and a curiosity to learn about yourself and your psyche. Psychodynamic therapy provides you with an advanced lens and understanding of the world.[4]
You learn how to better relate and to understand those around you. Moreover, you create better quality and happier relationships with your loved ones, friends, and family.[5]
Through psychodynamic therapy, you can gain insight into how your past led to your becoming the person you are. These insights present an opportunity to change directions if you want the trajectory of your life to lead in a new direction.
Other benefits of psychodynamic therapy can include treatment of eating disorders, addictions, reduced anxiety, and the development of increased self-esteem.
