Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

Psychodynamic therapy may be regarded as a profound and deeply personal journey of introspection and self-expansion. This fluid and non-directive approach encourages the exploration of one’s unique inner landscape through the open expression of thoughts, emotions, sensations, and desires. Central to psychodynamic thought is the potent influence of unconscious forces and early childhood experiences on present behaviours and relational patterns, both with oneself and others.


Over time, psychodynamic therapy promotes greater insight as one becomes increasingly attuned to the unfolding of their experience in the world. Relief from symptoms typically follows restored balance in thinking and feeling, an enhanced nurturing responsiveness toward oneself, and a softening of intrapersonal conflicts. By investing time in a more intimate understanding of themselves, individuals begin to navigate life's rhythms with a greater sense of meaning, wholeness, vitality, and hope.

 

I am making a home inside myself. A shelter of kindness where everything is forgiven, everything allowed - a quiet patch of sunlight to stretch out without hurry, where all that has been banished and buried is welcomed, spoken, listened to - released.

I am making a home inside myself where grace blooms in grand and glorious abundance, a shelter of kindness that grows all the truest things.
