Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach rooted in understanding how unconscious thoughts and past experiences influence current emotions, behaviors, and relationships. Through questions and insights, the therapist joins the client in exploring their thoughts, feelings, and memories. The therapist's expertise in asking questions, listening for affect, and unconditional positive regard, facilitate insight into into unresolved conflicts and patterns. Clients can expect to  develop a better understanding of their internal dynamics, allowing them to identify and address issues that brought them into therapy. The therapist helps patients establish connections between their past experiences and current difficulties. The ultimate goal is to enhance self-awareness, promote healthier coping mechanisms, and facilitate lasting changes in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors over time. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is typically a medium to longer-term process, emphasizing the importance of building a strong therapeutic alliance and exploring the complexities of one's inner world.
