Psychodynamic Therapy
© Janaina Mello 2019
In psychodynamic therapy we use different forms of therapy in a dynamic way depending on the client and the issue. It is a short term form of therapy where the emphasis is on your own insights.
Approach.
My goal is to let you experience how you relate to your issue, and what the background of it is. Subsequently, I make use of your self-healing power to find a solution or to reach acceptance. In your subconscious you already have all the answers – I just guide you towards them, allowing you to step into your power.
Form.
For instance, I use Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Family Constellations, Regression, EFT Relationship Therapy, Bodywork, Voice Dialogue, Inner Child Therapy and Mindfulness. The choice of what technique is used depends entirely on what is needed at a specific moment.

More than once in my life I have had the thought “I wish that at birth they would have presented me with my manual, Lisa’s own manual”. Again and again I wondered, why do I do what I do, why do I feel what I feel and why do I endlessly repeat patterns I know deep down don’t work. During my education at the Academy for Psychodynamics I received that manual, bit by bit. I got insights into what my patterns are and how they work.
I started understanding how they arose and began seeing that I didn’t need everything I had learned as a child anymore. I learned how to really connect with myself and because of that, also with others. I noticed that all answers to the questions of my life were already in me, but that I had unlearned how to make contact with them. I found out that that was not just the case for me, but also for my colleagues and clients.
Often we look outside ourselves or to others to relieve us of our pains and problems. But this is not necessary – when we relearn to really connect with ourselves and our inner answers life feels much lighter and easier.
This is what I have to offer as psychodynamic coach and therapist. I can help you in a safe environment to reconnect with the answers that are already within yourself.
If I think you need other professional help or care I will always refer you.
