3. What is the chief method of treatment? :-
Psychodynamic therapy uses the methods of free association and reporting of dreams to elicit the thoughts and feelings of the client.
4. What is the nature of the therapeutic relationship between the client and the therapist? :-
Psychodynamic therapy assumes that the therapist understands the client’s intrapsychic conflicts better than the client and hence it is the therapist who interprets the thoughts and feelings of the client to her/him so that s/he gains an understanding of the same.
5. What is the chief benefit to the client? :-
Psychodynamic therapy values emotional insight as the important benefit that the client derives from the treatment. Emotional insight is present when the client understands her/his conflicts intellectually; is able to accept the same emotionally; and is able to change her/his emotions towards the conflicts.
6. On the duration of treatment :-
The duration of classical psycho- analysis may continue for several years. However, several recent versions of psychodynamic therapies are completed in 10–15 sessions.
