At Associates in Psychotherapy we practice interpersonal psychoanalytic psychotherapy aimed at helping you learn how to gently relate to yourself and others in as pleasant a manner as might be possible. We help you to explore your personality and how you detract from or enhance your life. No one knows themselves well enough if they cannot use that knowledge to direct themselves comfortably. Anxiety, psychological depression, negative feelings, irrational guilt, feelings of inferiority, and inability to act well in one's own interest are explored.Individual sessions are verbally interactive and guided by interpretations and questions as needed. Exploring your thoughts, feelings and actions along with interpretation usually broadens one's abilities and strengths so as to not need to generate undue anxiety, depression or destructive interactions. Sessions typically last 45 minutes and group sessions run an hour and a half. Group sessions for individuals, with no one related to you being there allows you to speak your full thoughts and feelings to. Couples therapy and couples group meets regularly and is held by the same therapist each week. Couples therapy and couples group assist people in examining the current functioning of their relationship on the spot. It is seen as best that each person have an individual therapist with whom to regularly and confidentially explore themselves and their life so as to attain as much gentle control of themselves and their actions as possible. Call us today and schedule your individual session or come on in for group sessions.
