There are times when the pressures of life become quite difficult to balance. Most people experience anxiety or depression at some stage in their life and find themselves needing to come to terms with pain or disappointment. Often these concerns can be resolved by the individual alone without seeking outside professional help.

 

Sometimes, however these difficulties persist causing unhappiness at home, at work and in relationships. This may be because these difficulties are stirring up feelings from the past of which the person is not consciously aware.

 

Psychotherapy enables individuals to understand hidden aspects of themselves.  A psychoanalytic approach postulates that it is only when you consider the unconscious as well as the conscious mind that you can come to understand the whole person.
