What is Psychodynamic Counselling?

 

Psychodynamic Counselling focuses on the clients unconscious processes and resistance towards past emotional issues. The counsellor works in conjunction with the individual to quickly formulating a therapeutic focus that goes beneath the surface of the presenting problem and symptoms and treats the underlying issues. (Treating the problem in the context of their current situation and earlier life experiences, Messer and Warren). This may be by way of conflict resolution (with self or others), via trauma focus, allowing greater access to core feelings, increasing choice possibilities, improving interpersonal relationships and symptom resolution.

Psychodynamic Counselling has advantages such as it establishes a time limitation, it targets specific interpersonal problems and interprets them from the initial session, it allows the counsellor to guide the client and form a strong working alliance with them. This technique previously took 10 - 25 sessions, but with the added Reiki element clients take on average 4-6 sessions

 

What is Psychodynamic Reiki Counseling?

 

The Reiki element enables the client to relax more quickly and enter a meditative state. This enables inborn instincts and foundations of childhood experiences as well as past traumas to be accessed easily.

 

Psychodynamic Reiki Counseling opens the barriers to the unconscious mind in order for the repressed emotions to be released in a controlled way, through the conscious self. This access to the largely unconscious personality, (which demands expression, by way of anger, fearfulness and crying) allows barriers to the subconscious feelings to be dissolved.

 

Prevention of expression of the unconscious personality, due to the perceived consequences, causes barriers to these subconscious feelings. However denial of these feelings and the un-discharged negative energy causes anxiety or aggressive feelings which may be directed towards others in way of violent outbursts or towards self by way of self doubt, depression, self injury or suicidal thoughts.

Psychodynamic Reiki Counseling

Our Mobile Service

Many clients have no conscious understanding of where these feelings originate from and therefore accessing them is often an arduous task. However since Psychodynamic Reiki Counselling enables clients to access their own inner guidance, the imprinted episode which gave rise to these emotions is also accessed and can therefore be dealt with.

 

In addition to psychodynamic counselling we incorporate much of the ethos formulated by Rudolf Steiner, treating clients Androposophically, as a whole person, holistically, thus multiple symptoms whether physical or emotional, can be healed at once.

 

What Happens During a Session?

 

During a Psychodynamic Reiki Counseling session the client remains fully dressed and lays on a treatment couch or sits in a comfortable chair with soft music playing. The therapist places her / his hands on or above the client and allows the energy to flow. Where there is a disruption in the flow, this indicates to the counselor, an area where the client is ready to look at an aspect of their life. The client is helped into a meditative state through instructions from the therapist. This opens barriers to the subconscious, therefore allowing the client to release this negative subconscious energy, along with the connected feelings, in a safe and controlled manner.

Treatments last on average one hour, but may take longer, depending on the severity of the clients needs
