What is Psychodynamic Psychotherapy?
Core Concepts in Psychoanalysis and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy:
1) The Internal World and Subjective Experience
Fantasies, dreams, hopes, impulses, self images, and perceptions of others are richsources of information about the mind.
2) The Unconscious
Much of what we do is unconsciously motivated. Mental contents are censored,repressed, and not easily brought into awareness.
3) Psychic Determinism
Symptoms and behaviors are external manifestations of unconscious processes,although causes of behavior are complex (over determined) and multiple.
4) The Past
Experiences in infancy and childhood are crucial determinants of adult personality.
5) Transference
Past relationships are unconsciously reenacted in the present day, including the therapy situation, and a wealth of information is brought forth for the therapist.
6) Countertransference
The therapist's total reaction to the patient provides information about what the therapist might need to work on for him/herself and provides information about the patient. Both need to be understood in order to further help the patient.
7) Resistance
The mind defends itself against painful feelings, knowledge and seemingly threatening or disruptive change through defense mechanisms. Resistance is atype of defense which can be seen in treatment.

An Analyst's Perspective
"Therapists are paid to talk to interesting people all day. In this regard, we are in a privileged profession. The pleasures are many: connecting with someone at a profound level of intimacy that is rare in other situations, learning about other cultural and psychological perspectives on matters of great importance to the human condition, and helping others enrich their lives and make changes for the better." -Glen Gabbard, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, author, and editor
