What is psychodynamic therapy?
Psychodynamic therapy is a type of talk therapy that helps you explore the deeper layers of your emotions, behaviours, and relationship patterns.
Unlike short-term approaches like CBT that focus mainly on symptoms, psychodynamic therapy looks at the why — helping you understand how past experiences and unconscious thoughts may still be shaping how you feel, think, and relate to others today.

Common reasons people seek PDT.
Psychodynamic therapy can be especially helpful if you’re dealing with emotional patterns that feel hard to shift — even if you can’t fully explain why.
People often come to this type of therapy for support with:
- Ongoing anxiety, low mood, or emotional ups and downs
- Relationship difficulties, including intimacy or trust issues
- Low self-esteem, self-doubt, or unresolved inner conflict

Frequently Asked Questions about PDT therapy.
Psychodynamic therapy is a form of talk therapy that helps you explore the deeper layers of your thoughts, feelings, and patterns — especially the ones that may come from past experiences or unconscious beliefs
While CBT focuses on short-term symptom relief, psychodynamic therapy explores deeper emotional patterns and helps you understand the root of your challenges for long-term change.
It’s for anyone who wants to understand themselves on a deeper level, individuals dealing with emotional struggles, relationship difficulties, or those simply seeking personal growth.
It varies. Some people benefit from short-term therapy, but many choose to stay longer to explore deeper patterns and create lasting change.
