What is Psychoanalysis?
Psychoanalysis is a form of depth-oriented psychotherapy that invites us to look beneath the surface of our conscious lives—to listen to dreams, slips, defenses, and repetitions as messages from the unconscious. Where other therapies may focus on symptom management, psychoanalysis attends to meaning and transformation. It is a sustained process of thinking and feeling together that unfolds slowly, allowing a person to reclaim parts of themselves that have been defended against or disowned.
How It Works
We meet multiple times per week (or as agreed), creating a rhythm that deepens attention and continuity. The analytic relationship becomes the laboratory of change: together, we study what repeats between us and within you, and gradually new ways of being emerge.
What It Offers
- Greater emotional freedom and self-understanding
- Integration of mind and body, thought and feeling
- The ability to sustain intimacy and creativity
- A more authentic relationship to one’s own life and desires
For those drawn to it, psychoanalysis becomes not only a treatment but a way of thinking and living—a sustained inquiry into the truth of one’s own experience.
