Psychodynamic Psychotherapy is treatment for the mind in motion. We will use our relationship to uncover unconscious material that could be inhibiting your present internal and relational experiences. I will use supportive (building your ego) and uncovering (making conscious the unconscious) techniques that may stir positive and negative memories and feelings. The goal of our work is to understand the impact of the unconscious on our conscious thoughts, feelings, and behaviour, (from Psychodynamic Psychotherapy: a clinical manual by Cabaniss et al., 2013)
