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.
