"Real isn't how you are made,' said the Skin Horse. 'It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real." - Margery Williams Bianco, The Velveteen Rabbit
I consider psychodynamic psychotherapy to be, fundamentally, a learning process focused on your Self - your thoughts, feelings and behavioural patterns, your fantasies and wishes, the realities of your developmental history - and any discord therein.
This kind of learning makes use of an Other - someone you can ask to listen as you express your Self, and who can provide attention, compassion, perspective in that listening - to support you in finding ways to hold it all together. This is what I endeavour to do for you.
What you learn in this process can empower your creativity, helping you to make more informed decisions and pursue more authentic actions, in the effort to realise a life that, indeed, you want to live.
