Psychoanalytic Counselling in New Malden
Throughout our lives we all experience difficulties and challenges that sometimes we can’t manage on our own. Psychotherapy can be an extremely powerful tool to help us become more aware of who we are and gain a better understanding about our relationships with others and the situations we find ourselves in. My main approach to Psychotherapy draws on psychodynamic and attachment based principles, which involves the idea that thinking about past experiences and early childhood relationships can help make sense of current feelings, experiences, relationships and difficulties.

Sometimes our coping strategies and the way we relate to others may become problematic. Relationships may have broken down, you may be suffering from anxiety, depression or low self esteem. You may feel stuck and can't find a way forward. You may have lost someone close to you or something that was really important to you. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy can offer the opportunity to begin to make sense of what underlies your difficulties, come to terms with your losses and discover new perspectives. I help you make links between what you are doing in the here and now and the way you experience your life and the people within it.

We all have moments in which we feel vulnerable in the stressful world of nowadays. Life is challenging and most of us has experienced how it can become overwhelming.

Throughout psychotherapy, you will have the opportunity to raise issues that are currently on your mind and to acquire awareness and self-confidence, allowing healthier and happier ways of living.

Perhaps you are looking for some help with issues of anxiety or depression, which are affecting your day to day life. You might be feeling a bit hopeless, tired and are looking for change. Do you ask yourself: 'is this all there is?' Are you feeling a sense of loss of who you used to be or would like to be and are curious to see if therapy could help?

Psychoanalytic Counsellors
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviours. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behaviour is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
