Psychoanalytic psychotherapy, is a special form of therapy. The aim is to become more conscious of what we were previously unconscious. This is the process of really getting to know ourselves - 'warts and all' and it can bring about profound changes in the personality, often the symptoms that we were having problems with no longer serve a purpose and so they simply disappear. It brings relief from, and meaning to psychological suffering.

As we learn to relate more meaningfully with ourselves, along with symptoms disappearing, we find that we also begin to relate more meaningfully with others - our relationships become more authentic.

Relatedness is the basis of emotional health, psychotherapy aims to develop a healthy, true and deep relationship with oneself which leads to healthy, true and deep relationships with others and also with the environment within which we live and breathe.
