Often, people come to us looking to explore psychological concerns in a sophisticated way. If they had past therapy, they were at times disappointed that it did not go deeper, as it left the greater meaning (the "roots") of their symptoms unexplored. Psychodynamic therapy, however, offers a comprehensive way of seeing that maintains thoughtful attention to the subtle depths and intricacies of human experience, thus allowing for holistic change. In so doing, it can help to both resolve symptoms and impart meaning to your experiences, even those thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are often felt to be painful or meaningless.
We offer insight-oriented psychotherapy (“psychodynamic therapy”) for those looking to deepen their understanding of themselves and their relationships. In therapy, we might explore your childhood, intimate or familial relationships, dreams or fantasies, unwanted behaviors and impulses, therapeutic relationship, or any other topic you choose to discuss.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions regarding therapy, as we are happy to discuss them with you. We look forward to talking with you.
