I am really glad to have come across this video about Psychodynamic Therapy. For all this time that I have encountered and face my own problems, I believe this is the kind of approach that I really wanted to do. One of the clear reason why I’m having a hard time to process other insights might be also a part of the fact that I’m trying to try to dive deeper but I know for the fact that I am not yet ready because I do not have my own safety net. Anyway, I believe the video gave me a big push in pursuing other paths of my own psyche and I am really looking forward to the future that there is for me. Thank you, Ana!
I spent almost a decade in psychodynamic psychotherapy. It did so much for me that I am now starting my own education to become a psychodynamic/psychoanalytical psychotherapist.
my old therapist was like this and some sessions I felt I learned nothing in some session, but when reflecting the last year or so I realized just how much we tackled. he mirrored me a lot, too. if I was silient, he was silent, etc. I think I want to go back having gotten my Psych degree recently. I feel I understand him a lot better.
Wow love your explanation, as a psychoanalyst im glad to hear someone as prepared as you how to explain to people this topic, in Mexico and most LATAM we fight against quack psychoanalysts and people who think is fake, so thats why this content is heartwarming and enriching, keep it up dr.
Honestly I can totally relate have had a couple of months of Psychodynamic Therapy, I changed after feeling awful and more confused after my CBT sessions. It felt like I was in this structured schedule and it felt so forced and un-natural and overly semantic. Psychodynamic therapy lets my feel air and breathe after a session. I don't feel shame after. It helps me understand myself and my history to understand and empathise on why I am the way I am. Life is hard but this decision is something I fully reccommend.
Other people can see things about ourselves that we cannot see. Ray Dalio speaks about ego barriers and ego blind spots (defence mechanisms) we all possess to differing things unique to the person. The more awareness you can gain about these the better off you become and the less suffering you will experience.
As someone who has been doing psychodynamic therapy for years, I have to say it is one of the best things I ever done. It's scary, its encouraging, it's confusing, it's insightful, it's dull, and it's exciting. I think if you have the courage and opportunity to do psychodynamic therapy with a good psychologist, take it, you will learn so much about yourself. Sometimes it is obtuse or boring or confronting, but it is important to keep in the back of your mind that you are always learning more about yourself. As Ana said, it is a bit frustrating when you aren't given activities or timelines for expectations like in CBT or schema based therapies (especially if you're a bit type A like me lol). It's about becoming self aware and then making the choice to move away from learned automatic lines of thinking that are unhealthy. Good luck to everyone on their mental health journey! You all can do it!
i hate when i’m in CBT or DBT and they pull up worksheets. Idk it’s so surface level . After 8 years of in and out of this type of “therapy” i just relied on youtube videos and friends on philosophical conversations and things we approach so we recognize our patterns cuz at the end of the day It’s Us individuals making the change happen . Therapy just adds as a plus . However i have been trying to find a psychodynamic therapist but they are so hard to find especially on my Medicaid Mental Services Plan
This video was beautifully helpful for me. Had a cathartic cry. I’m looking into different grad school programs to become a therapist and one of them is psychodynamic -based. Whether it is the program to train me to be a therapist I won’t know yet but hearing that feeling the emotions that I have been avoiding can be so helpful was just what I needed to hear right now in my personal therapy journey. Thanks for making this video.
Your video touches in something I've been feeling for a while know. Looking into myself and my upbringing I have logically recognised a lot of things about myself. For example that I likely have a fearful avoidant attachment style. Due to hypervigilance at least 50% of my brain is always focused on analysing the social dynamics around me. However that doesn't help me much. Knowing all that doesn't make me feel any differently. So now I'm just stuck watching myself repeating the same patterns over and over.
As someone also struggles with asking for help and receiving validation, it’s good to see it’s not just me. I’m curious to see what I’ll discover once I re-enter therapy as a future counselor myself
What I find interesting is that I have found many aspects of this in CBT as well, especially in third wave approaches like ACT (for example noticing defense mechanisms and experiential avoidance, or the therapist relationship being one that breaks the patient's usual relationship patterns). In my opinion a good CB therapist is also aware of these aspects and goes beyond worksheets and cognitive restructuring.
Exactly! I'm finishing my masters in CBT and most of the things she mentioned we spoke about during the course. Just not the dream analysis part and the more freudian side of it I guess. This video was very helpful for me because I used to think psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis where basically the same thing, and now I understand that's not true.
3:48 I too have been becoming very aware and caring of my own behavioral patterns and my interactions with others and my defense mechanisms and phobias, which I've been facing one at a time btw, I'm so conscientious of my spiders now! lol. I was never aware how shitty a lot of my friends were until I opened up and started making new friends. I have moved beyond that initial group of "friends" and am now confident enough to actually go out and make new REAL friends :)
All very interesting! Thanks for sharing Ana. I'd be careful with the dreams though, as we have no way to verify if our interpretation to them are accurate or not. I have the wildest dreams with the weirdest characters and roles that i couldn't for the life of me bring into the slimest cohesion.
I'm an introspective and open book type rambler, with a disconnect from my own feelings that seems to trigger automatically (I try to feel my sadness, but the feeling slips away almost immediately). Maybe this type of therapy is exactly what I need? My preference is to lay everything out on the table because I have absolutely no idea what is and isn't a priority- if I knew what the solution to my problems were, they would no longer be problems, and if I knew where I should be looking for solutions, I'd have found them by now. I tried counseling, it went poorly, and I gave up because I couldn't tell the poor guy what I even needed help with or why I was there.
it seems like its hard to find psychodynamic therapists? well atleast where i live in austalia. also i noticed u havent made any videos on CPTSD. would love to watch a video on this topic if u have much knowledge on it or anything
Doctor, i'm pre-psychiatry and there seems to be more scrutiny in the past ~10 years of psychodynamics, perhaps, simply because of the runaway success of CBT in that period. But it seems to me that there is certainly a place for it. My question though, do you feel psychodynamic therapy is becoming of an alternative/holistic treatment, simply due to how overwhelming the evidence base is now for CBT, and that pshynoanalysis by nature is harder to measure? What are your thoughts on the evidence base for these treatments? Thank you so much, I've always been interested in this style and it just so happens to be what most psychiatrists learn over CBT.
Psychodynamic therapy also has a a lot of research supporting it now, it’s not less effective than CBT and CBT has more problems it runs into when no longer in clinical settings that are not representative of real life
@@Kingofcrocs1 I agree. when I was in college in the early '10s PDT was the only prominently support therapy. Everyone started nutting over CBT because it was "short term" and easy to study. But the truth is no real therapy happens until after 6 months, and any therapist worht their salt these days uses multiple approaches.
I'm always intrigued by people who need a stranger within an interpersonal power dynamic that situates most if the power with the therapist (remember your therapist is emboldened by law to remove your liberty & have you incarcerated in a hospital ward) to interpret their own experiences. Just like a priest or cult leader would?
The beginnings seemed to present dichotomous 17:40 bad cbt and a good dynamic therapy. Not sure that’s what Ana meant. A statement indicating appropriate uses of each would anticipate possible objections , keep minds from objecting, and maintain a platform for the topic.
Hi Ana, I was wondering why it seems many psychologists don't like use or preference a psycho dynamic approach (don't seem to see value in it/are dismissive of it/think it's too abstract)? What are your thoughts on this please? Thanks for this video, very interesting!
A large proportion of my supervisors and peers during grad school were psychodynamic! It's just not the main modality to be showcased in research because it typically lasts much longer than the short-term resources studies can afford. Also, a lot of insurances won't reimburse long-term therapy because they want the client "fixed" in 5-20 sessions.
Can you make a guide to finding the right therapist? For example, I heard that getting a neuropsychological evaluation is the first step to identifying what the issue is, the seconds step is to then follow up with looking for a therapist.
As someone majoring in psychology right now, psychodynamic therapy has been heavily discouraged so its interesting to see your thoughts. It feels like a lot of that roots back to general disdain for Freud
It's not a good omen when you try to be the successor of somebody that wasn't just a piece of garbage to a human level, but even scientifically he was a total liar and fraudster.
In a capitalist word of insurence companies, busy schedules and quick life it will always be encouraged to try CBT which will last only 10-20 sessions, can be done only once every other week and will make you get rid of the symptoms which aren't letting you to be a good worker but not the underlying core wounds or traumas. You know if you heal too much you may even stop overcompensating with working too much or impulsive shopping
@@xyzzyx1100 Oh yeah.. that must surely be why even academia and countries without a broken healthcare system prefers it. They \*check notes\* limit how much you can spend to milk you more, right.
Very interesting your view on CBT, my anxiety strated to be better when i focused on my beliefs not just my thoughts Also do you know Albert ellis or viktor frankl and your thoughts on them
hello ana, amazing video! could you do a video about REM sleep behavior disorder? I've been struggling with this ever since I can remember and it seems like the only thing that works is smoking mj or eating edibles. melatonin never worked for me personally and I don't want western medicine in my body :// drinking mugwort tea and smoking lavender also helps but what are your opinions?
I only just finished a year of psychodynamic therapy and was hoping that this video would somehow tell me that I did something wrong. I know that's not the best way to go about things but I ended up feeling pressured about opening up (since going into psychodyn wasn't my choice, I was scared of refusing or not engaging leading to future therapy becoming inaccessible) and I just feel so much worse.. The frequency and intensity of nightmares I have about traumatic events got so much worse and I'm not sure what to do at this point? I'm left feeling like I now have to deal with it all on my own, all alone. There wasn't much support in the therapy. It was and still is a huge struggle trying to talk about the things I've experienced and am dealing with because I just feel so much shame about it.. I wonder if I've made the wrong choice by sticking with it instead of pushing back and trying to get trauma therapy like I originally hoped to?
Do you suppose that your "success" with psychodynamic therapy was a direct result, in part or whole, of your previous work in results oriented modalities (CBT, DBT, etc)
It reminds me of the Hulu version of High Fidelity where Rob runs into her ex before a date and while theyre talking gets her hand cut open by a biker- the physical pain represented the emotional.
Hi, can you tell me in which type of psychodynamic therapy were you in? Classical analysis or something else? I have a hard time differentiating, because it seems like to me that psychodynamic = analysis. Dynamic approach is appealing to me but analysis isn't.
I'm so happy to hear your perspective on psychodynamic therapy. I have been a patient of psychoanalytic psychotherapy for 7 years now and am currently finishing my bachelor's degree in psychology, looking towards specializing in my master's (in Portugal, you only need master's and a year of mentored work to become a licensed clinical psychologist) in Psychodynamic Therapy. I must say that I share your views on what CBT "lacks" compared to what psychodynamic therapy can provide, and I find it very hard to find similar views with my peers in university, as all are very driven towards CBT. So I appreciate the chance of identification! I also have thought for a long time to write about the sessions, but have never done it, and I suspect you've been having such great improvements thanks to that bonus work, so I'm going to try to do the same. I'm currently pregnant for the first time and this transformative time has brought a whole new set of obstacles, and i need all the help i can get to keep developing my insight and with that a more enjoyable meaningful life. Thank you!
I’m currently in my second year of a PsyD program that has been very CBT focused and have been feeling similar to how you described in the beginning of the video. I’ve been transitioning towards a psychodynamic focus. Any advice for the budding psychodynamic therapist?
It can certainly change cognitive patterns, though it does so in a more indirect way than other types of therapy. For example, some forms of therapy might promote a type of cognitive change by teaching skills, assigning homework, filling out worksheets... Whereas a psychodynamic therapist can prompt cognitive flexibility in the client by pointing out defense behaviors that impede cognitive flexibility, modeling cognitive flexibility themselves, helping the client process the emotions preventing cognitive flexibility, getting to the root of what initially caused the cognitive flexibility, etc.
Nice, seems also like it can indireclty change some metacognitive beliefs after the processing and insight, which thereafter maybe leads to a "letting go" of a certain theme/worry pattern. One hypothesis from me.@@AnaPsychology
😂 this is great. no, imagine taking to a wall, you won't be able to talk longer than 2 min. In this therapy you talk to a person who is not an individual. The bond you make is your projection who is a therapist. The therapist "only listens" and asks questions. Once I said to the therapist 'you would say....' immediately I got it, because the therapist *never* made a statement, so I made of a therapist a character that doesn't exist...
there are some good therapists who claim to follow a psychodynamic approach. it’s unfortunately also a good method for lazy therapists to do no work and offer nothing but rip off and exploit patients.
Its a bit boring to demystify this, its a magical journey through your inner landscape, its definitely mystic and fantastic, you can even meet God if you dig deep enough, thats my experience.
@@MELLMAO I don't see why. Isn't this an educational channel? Perhaps Dr. Ana didn't know about that and this was the opportunity to learn something new. One of the first visible symptoms of chronic dehydration are dry lips. If she did know that, she could have just ignored it. Same as you.

What kinds of psychotherapy is not "insights oriented"?
Does psychodynamic therapy affect cognitive flexbility?
