Psychoanalysis is an effective psychological treatment for people whose difficulties range from mild to moderate to severe. Talking to a psychoanalyst in a secure environment can reveal underlying unconscious causes and promote understanding and alleviation.
If you experience any of the following:
- psychic pain, unease, or symptoms you don’t understand
- disturbed mood, manifesting as depression, anxiety or anger
- a sense of detachment, loneliness, or emptiness within
- patterns of repeated difficulties in work, love or friendships
- self-destructive patterns towards self and others in relationships
- suffering from feelings of doubt, guilt, inner conflict, or low self-esteem
- Looking for a more exploratory and deeper approach than other therapies you may have attempted in the past
- sexual difficulties, obsessions, or physical symptoms
- a feeling of not being able to reach your potential
- a sense of having lost your way or sense of self
- a wish to develop a greater capacity to think or to feel, to achieve a deeper understanding of self
- a history of trauma, including loss and bereavement
