Psychodynamic therapy is appropriate for clients wishing to look more deeply at the roots of problems ranging from stress, anxiety, depression, professional burnout or "imposter syndrome", to issues of loss, self-esteem, relationship, identity and problems of blocked creativity.
Are you a Gifted adult? Would you like to discuss giftedness openly? What is a gifted identity in adulthood? Was there life-long sense of being “different”? Multipotentiality may make any one career feel constraining. Emotional intensity makes relationships challenging. Self-criticism leads to feelings of being an imposter. Gifted adults may be prone to existential depression and painful moments of “positive disintegration”. The gifted adult often shows unusual maturity, social adjustment and natural leadership, but Giftedness can also intersect with other neurodivergences such as ASD, ADHD or learning disabilities in complex ways.

What are the most common treatments for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
