psychotherapy |
Psychotherapy with
a psychologist is a very special form of relationship, so the following
information may help you decide whether or not to choose this form of
therapy: The background of a mental condition reveals itself
only gradually so in the beginning, the sessions are primarily aimed at
gathering information. Consultations are by appointment only, and during
the 45-minute sessions patients discuss their problems and expectations
toward the psychologist and the psychological treatment. By the end of the
4th session we can agree in the therapeutic goals, clarify possibilities,
make a verbal contract, and commence the therapeutic stage. The length of the therapy depends on the complexity
of problems, and the needs of patients. |

of
analytic psychotherapy |
The major point of the psychoanalytic attitude is that to make a
treatment more effective and thorough for the long run as well we do not
“only” intend to fight the surfacing symptoms, but we aim to understand and
cope with the conflicts of underlying emotional drives as well. Containing
feelings that seem dreadful makes it possible to manage them. Appreciation of
the inner world strengthens and stabilises self-recognition and increases the
capacity of taking burdens to mind. Knowing the whys and wherefores of
actions grants stability and security as one will not be so helplessly
overwhelmed. With a better understanding of the inner reasons, one will take
decisions more easily. Problems as such will not cease to exist, no therapy
can or is expected to attain such an aim, but the way of experiencing and
solving problems can really change. In this very special relationship there
is no straight advising. The patient takes his/her own decisions. The role of
the psychologist is to guide you in the process of acquainting your self,
help you think differently to find new perspectives and solutions to your
problems. The
aim of psychotherapy is to establish a firm base of self-awareness to make
one understand his/her subconscious mental processes and their causes, as well
as clarify feelings and realise the way of participation in inducing certain
situations. These
recognitions and considerations might set a whole series of changes going,
which can affect the patient’s whole life. |

of
psychological counselling |
If
you need immediate advice on a specific question Analytic Psychotherapy,
which involves a therapeutic process, is not applicable, however I am also
available for consultation and counselling. Discussing a difficult
situation of life with the help of a counselling psychologist can help in
clarifying goals and hindrances, evaluating advantages and disadvantages.
There are cases when one or a couple of consultations can result in a more
comprehensive understanding of the problem. Receiving support and being able
to look at it from a slightly different perspective sometimes makes it
possible to surmount difficulties. |
