What is Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
At the
Berkeley Institute for Behavioral Health and Psychological Services we practice what is broadly called, psychodynamic psychotherapy. This form of psychotherapy has been shown by a very substantial body of research to be the most effective form of therapy for the broad range of human problems we at the Berkeley Institute are here to help with. For some time there has been an increasing focus on what have been called “evidence based” psychotherapies such as “cognitive behavioral therapy”. Simply put this means that the approach has been studied using the scientific methods widely accepted as sound for determining the effectiveness of psychotherapy. Much of the research showing effectiveness has been based on relatively narrow therapeutic approaches. Psychodynamic psychotherapy embraces an integration of various approaches shown to be of value in solving the human problems within ourselves and between ourselves and others. In doing this work we seek to understand and increase our consciousness of the causes and effects of the problems that bring a person to psychotherapy. We look for and recognize those problematic beliefs and feelings that are more or less unconscious and bring them into the realm of choice.
