Do this quick quiz to find out:
Are you a reflective person who often wonders about how your past has affected you now?
Do you want to decide what you talk about in sessions?
Are you too busy to do homework and prefer to reflect when you can in between session instead?
Are you willing to explore the conflict that cause you stress, pain or difficulty in your life?
Would you like to feel comfortable with your therapist, in a supportive space, so that you can discuss deeper thoughts?
Would you like to know how your therapist makes sense of the patterns, behaviors, and experiences?
Are you interested in understanding the underlying reasons as to why you do what you do?
Are you willing to work on yourself over time in order to make sustainable long term changes?
If you answered yes to two or more questions you would likely be rewarded greatly from psychodynamic therapy. Through understanding yourself, your behaviours and your past, comes the ability to overcome difficulties and grow.
