People of all ages come in to psychotherapy and psychoanalysis for help with anxiety, depression, dysfunctional relationships, negative thinking and low self-esteem.
They feel helpless with the overwhelming thoughts, emotions, feelings, memories and experiences that they have lived with and that impact their lives daily.
A major part of the therapeutic relationship revolves around therapist or analyst/patient talking about the thoughts, feelings, etc., to express them, and this is what enables them to then be transformed into other energy, positive energy to help them move forward.
