Psychoanalysis - Sydney

Why Psychoanalysis?

  • Through the patient’s free association of ideas, memories, and dreams, the analyst is guided into the their subjective world to make sense of conflicts in their various forms.

  • I like to think of psychoanalysis as an artisanal process crafted by both analyst and patient together. The analyst, as a sculptor, removes what conceals, uncovering elements that may have remained hidden, yet are silently active.

  • Psychoanalysis offers a space for attentive listening, acknowledging the uniqueness of each individual.

  • Instead of providing easy answers, it invites a comprehensive exploration of the unconscious dynamics underlying suffering, conflict, and anxieties.

“Painting, says Leonardo [da Vinci], works ‘per via di porre’; indeed, it deposits accumulations of color on the blank canvas where nothing was before. Sculpture, on the other hand, proceeds ‘per via di levare’, for it removes from the stone everything that covers the forms of the statue contained within it.”

Sigmund Freud
