The courage to cross our inner
thresholds, to become intimate with ourselves, our pain and fear."

ABOUT
PSYCHOANALYSIS
Psychoanalysis provides a way of being helpful and interested in the intimate understanding of the self. Self knowledge is the only route to making life less disappointing, confusing and frightening. Psychoanalysis assists in the understanding of what causes our loneliness and pain which are not always obvious to us and can seem strange.
​
The analyst or therapist who employs Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy is interested in people getting better. An analytic understanding can help to reduce the hold that obsessions and unproductive anxiety can have on our selves. We can become more capable of love and cooperation.
