    In combination with CBT and the skill-building, to ensure permanent changes and to avoid or minimize the recurrence of depression, anxiety or other symptoms, an insight-oriented approach is a powerful component. Typically, particularly for individuals experiencing acute distress or difficulties, clients also need help managing and alleviating their symptoms in real time.

    Psychodynamic therapy focuses on the psychological roots and causes of emotional struggle. The main features of psychodynamic treatment include: Self-examination, reflection, and the use of the relationship between therapist and patient as a window into problematic relationship patterns in the patient’s life. Its goal is not only to alleviate the most obvious symptoms but to help people lead healthier lives.

    Psychodynamic psychotherapy is effective for a wide range of mental health symptoms, including depression, anxiety, panic and stress-related physical ailments.  The actual scientific evidence shows that psychodynamic therapy is highly effective, and the benefits of the therapy grow after treatment has ended.

    Using an insight-oriented approach, together we will work on gaining insight, and breaking self-defeating patterns. You will learn new and healthier patterns, and feel more self-possessed and relaxed.
