Individual psychoanalytical therapy

The purpose of psychoanalytical therapy is to acquire greater freedom in one’s emotional and social life.

For whom?

This type of therapy is more readily aimed at people who are curious about themselves but also want to overcome blockages or problematic and recurring operations. It is in line with the developments of Freud’s thought by contemporary psychoanalysis.

A current approach

Psychoanalysis and the therapies inspired by it are based on a basic conviction: part of our psychic functioning is unconscious. This unconscious is accessible to us with the help of facilitating conditions, the main one being the link between the analyst and the analyst (we speak of transfer).

Today, despite the success of brief therapeutic methods, psychoanalysis remains a modern approach that allows a gain in freedom. Especially when the symptoms or blockages – also in terms of sexuality – resist. It is then a matter of understanding its meaning and function.

Psychoanalysis and sexuality today

Despite the relevance of different sex therapy approaches, some difficulties cannot be treated without taking into account the unconscious processes that psychoanalysts have formulated or updated, based on Freud’s discoveries. A psychoanalytic orientation therapy makes it possible to approach sexuality by focusing on the context and history of the symptom.

Consider psychoanalytic orientation therapy

A personal analytical work is a demanding approach both in personal involvement and in concrete modalities. The monitoring framework (frequency of sessions and rates) is discussed and established during the first interviews.
