Frequently Asked Questions
Please see below answers to some frequently asked questions (FAQ's). Should you have any other questions please reach out to me via my "Contact" page.
What is Psychodynamic counselling?​
Psychodynamic Counselling is the longest established of the talking therapies. It's ethos lies in the belief that experiences, relationships and events from our earliest childhood throughout our lives serves to shape our current way of relating to the world around us. The underlying interaction is verbal between therapist and client and uses both conscious and unconscious processes to help the therapist unravel, with the client, the links that make the here and now so difficult.
