I just started my psychodynamic therapy treatment. Thanks for making the concept easier to understand in a short period of time. It’s so great that you mentioned this particular type of therapy is good for somebody who’s anxious to learn about themselves. I am desperately in need of searching for the true self. “The drama of the gifted child by Alice Miller” is a great book for that as well. (Highly recommended if you haven’t read it yet)
I heard this particular therapy could go on for years, I’d like to hear your thoughts on that?
