Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy /
Psychoanalyst London at Harley Therapy™
Psychoanalysis offers very useful principles which are adopted
in
longer-term Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy. A Psychoanalyst aims to
uncover the
unconscious factors that may underlie your problems. The presence of
unconscious factors means that the advice of others or self-help books
can fail to provide relief. Psychoanalysis sheds light on these
factors, showing how they affect your current ways of living and how
you can deal better with the demands of adult life.Psychoanalysis relies on the method of 'Free Association' (developed by Sigmund Freud). The process entails saying whatever comes into your head without giving any conscious direction to those thoughts. Alongside dream interpretation and analytic transference, free association is helpful in collecting valuable unconscious material to be worked with in sessions.
