What is psychodynamic therapy?
Psychodynamic therapy is based on classic psychoanalytic models developed by people like Sigmund Freud. It does not have to be just Freud's therapy, and some other forms of psychodynamic therapy include Jungian therapy and adlerian therapy. No matter what theoretical orientation of the therapist is a common thing with this form of therapy.
It is important to realize that there are some differences between psychoanalysis and psychodynamics. First, only people trained in psychoanalysis are encouraged to call themselves psychoanalysts. Every therapist can practice psychodynamic therapy. Second, therapists can use psychodynamics with other models. For example, they could integrate some cognitive behavioral therapy with Freud's work.
Mostly the goal in psychodynamic therapy is to let the person gain access to unconsciousness so that he can cope with those suppressed thoughts and feelings that affect behavior or alternately learn things missedThe development was arrested by trauma. The therapist in this environment should avoid his personality influenced by the client and specifically avoids a personal statement. In fact, therapists do not have to say much or do not even face the client. Clients could use a typical "couch", even if not.
For the therapist, maintaining personality outside the equation may be demanding, but one way to achieve this is to respond to personal questions. The client could ask the therapist if he is married, for which the therapist could answer, "What makes you ask you?" The therapist basically uses questioning to focus on the client.
However, this form of therapy often depends on a certain extent on transmission, on the fact that the client reflects his feelings on the therapist. The therapist does not distinguish against transmission, but it still often occurs. There are different thought schools about whether it is possible for the therapists to avoid itMu to get some of themselves into psychodynamic therapy or occasionally project their own thoughts and feelings for their clients. However, the aim is not to interfere with the client's search for understanding and developing ourselves.
The usual model of this form of therapy is that clients spend at least a few years at least once a week to work with the therapist. There is also a model called Short Psychodynamic therapy, where therapy occurs after a shorter time. The therapist must maintain firmly focused on personal work. This short form of therapy can be effective for some people because it is believed that many people who start this process are able to continue after a while and continue on the way to self-welfare or self-confidence without the therapist.
