Psychoanalytic psychotherapy draws upon the core principles and techniques of psychoanalysis, focusing exclusively on insight-oriented methods to explore the unconscious and resolve internal conflicts. Unlike traditional psychoanalysis, this form of therapy is typically shorter in duration and adopts a more practical approach. Strategies range from expressive techniques, which delve deeply into emotional expression and uncover hidden thoughts, to supportive techniques, which offer reassurance and enhance coping mechanisms. Sessions are conducted in a face-to-face setting, fostering direct communication and rapport between the patient and therapist. This structure makes the therapy more accessible and adaptable to a wider range of individuals.
