    BRAND GUIDELINES 3/50

    What is Psychodynamic therapy:

    is a talking therapy. This means that it


    is based on the concept that talking
    about problems can help people learn
    and develop the skills they need to
    address them.
    SIRENA 4/50

    It is an approach that embraces the multifaceted aspects of an


    individual’s life. It strives to help people understand the
    sometimes unknown or unconscious motivations behind difficult
    feelings and behaviors.

    Having this insight can lead to symptom relief, help


    people feel better, and allow them to make better choices.
    BRAND GUIDELINES 5/50

    Goals of psychodynamic
    theory
    Psychodynamic therapy pushes for clients to:

    1-Acknowledge their emotions:

    Over time, clients can start to


    recognize patterns in their
    emotions and address them,
    which can lead to making better
    choices.
    SIRENA 6/50

    2- Enhance the client’s self-awareness:

    understanding of the influence of the past on present behaviors. In


    its brief form, a psychodynamic approach enables the client to
    examine unresolved conflicts and symptoms that arise from past
    dysfunctional relationships.
    BRAND GUIDELINES 7/50

    3-Foster understanding:

    of the client’s thoughts,


    feelings, and beliefs in
    relation to their past
    experiences, especially his
    or her experiences as a
    child
    BRAND GUIDELINES 8/50

    4- Increased functioning at and ability to find satisfaction


    with work:

    positive emotional response you experience when doing


    your job or when you are present at work. Leading
    organizations are now trying to measure this feeling,
    with job satisfaction surveys becoming a staple at most
    workplaces.
    BRAND GUIDELINES 9/50

    5-Improvement in self-esteem 

    tend to feel positive


    about ourselves and
    about life in general.
    And makes the person
    better to deal with
    life's ups and downs.
    SIRENA 10/50

    6- Better ability to pursue long-term goals:

    it encourages you to
    intentionally decide what kind
    of future you’re striving for.
    Instead of working aimlessly.
    BRAND GUIDELINES 11/50

    7- Decrease in symptoms of anxiety and depression:

    psychodynamic "umbrella" that


    explain why a person develops
    depressive symptoms
    SIRENA 12/50

    8- Identify patterns. 

    Clients can begin to see patterns in more than just their


    emotions, but also their behaviors and relationships. Or,
    if clients are aware of negative patterns in their life,
    therapy can help them understand why they make
    certain choices and give them the power to change.
    SIRENA 13/50

    9-Improve interpersonal relationships

    Modern psychodynamic
    theory helps clients understand
    their relationships, as well as
    patterns they exhibit with
    relationships.
    SIRENA 14/50

    10- Recognize and address


    avoidance. 

    Everyone has automatic ways of avoiding bad


    thoughts and feelings. Therapy can help clients
    recognize when they’re acting in a way to avoid
    distress and how to move forward addressing
    their emotions with healthy coping mechanisms
    SIRENA 15/50

    11. Can Help Improve Social Functioning

    more effective than a control and


    just as effective as other types of
    psychotherapy, such as cognitive
    behavioral therapy, for supporting
    those with a variety of psychiatric
    symptoms and poor social
    functioning.
    SIRENA 16/50

    12- Improved management of


    aggression and 
    negative expressions of emotion

    Emotions that can become negative are


    hate, anger, jealousy and sadness. Yet, in
    the right context, these feelings are
    completely natural. Negative emotions
    can dampen our enthusiasm for life,
    depending on how long we let them
    affect us and the way we choose to
    express them.
    SIRENA 17/50

    1. Making mindful choices

    Psychodynamic therapy helps an individual be more


    aware of the situation.
    They are also more knowledgeable about their own
    capabilities.
    So, when the individual now faces difficulty in life,
    they can control their own actions. They can react in
    a way that is best suited to deal with the situation.
    SIRENA 18/50

    THANKS
