The Relationship Between a Therapist and a Patient in Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic psychotherapy always has been traditional therapy so I guess it would probably be more accurate to say our other forms is the relationship different than other forms of therapy that this really is the tradition going back to the late 1800s. The relationship between the therapist and the patient is the thing that's most unique that's at the center of this kind of therapy. We live out certain patterns with different degrees of awareness we live them out in relationships and meaningful psychotherapy is also a relationship.
