Psychodynamic Insights: What Makes Psychodynamic Therapy Different

Several features make psychodynamic therapy unique from other forms of therapy, like CBT and Behavior Therapies. This video outlines some of the basic differences between these therapeutic traditions and what the strengths of psychodynamic therapy are.

Psychodynamic Insights
The most important assessment tool in therapy is your intuition. It's your sense of where to move next in the therapy hour. No clinical questionnaire or assessment is able to replace your insight. Only another person can sense what is going on above and below the surface of consciousness. This video series will help you, the clinician, develop the most powerful tool for healing. That tool is the therapeutic relationship. We will focus on how to increase intuition and empathy. Pre-armed with these skills, you'll be better able to plan what your next move is. Having a meta-view of different psychological patterns will free you to connect.
What is Psychodynamic Psychotherapy?

Today, we take for granted ideas that 100 years ago were anything but obvious. We know we are more complicated than how we see ourselves. The existence of the unconscious is unquestioned. We know there are numerous influences in the world but despite that we are still masters of our own destiny. Perhaps the most revolutionary idea of all is our emotional problems are solvable. The key is talking about them. Exploring pain, as opposed to running away from it, is transformative. All these ideas arise out of the foundational works of Freud, Jung, and Adler. They laid the groundwork for psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Countless other psychotherapists have added their voices guiding new generations of therapists. No matter your theory, we are all on the same road. We are helping clients glimpse the psyche and make peace with contradictions. Unlike other therapies that focus on quickly alleviating symptoms, psychodynamic therapy is different. It sees understanding the source of pain as more important than covering up symptoms. What this therapy learned early is it's easier to mask pain as opposed to resolving it for good.

Psychodynamic therapy has powerful tools to enable transformation, self-awareness, and block defenses. Our work is to help clients stay in their emotions to not lose touch with themselves.
