For Patients

Are you, a family member, or friend looking for psychological help to deal with challenging issues from the past that may be negatively affecting your or their current lives?

Psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy can be incredibly valuable for:

       •  working through trauma, 

       •  transforming developmental challenges, 

       •  altering patterns of thoughts and behaviors that
           interfere with personal well-being and fulfilling
           relationships. 

Therapy is emotionally demanding and requires vulnerability and dedicated work but is potentially life-changing in providing the help and support needed to heal, grow, and thrive.

For Patients

“Psychological health is how the essential self learns to navigate among a variety of self-states while maintaining or recovering its coherency of self.”

     — Gwyn Erwin

For Therapists in Training

As a Post-Graduate Psychology Student or Analytic Candidate, are you seeking either required therapeutic or supervisory hours as you begin working with patients? 

Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst, Dr. Gwyn Erwin offers training hours or supervision to Psychology Students/Candidate Analysts during their training experience.  Together, we explore the psychological dynamics in a variety of cases (Pre-or- Post Control Supervision), or we may devote a year’s work of supervision on one case (Control Case Supervision) in once-a-week meetings.

 

During this time, the supervisory focus is on:

        •  establishing a trustworthy therapeutic alliance between student therapist
            and patient 
 

        •  navigating the transition from working solely in a supportive therapeutic
            mode to an in-depth psychodynamic approach 
 

        •  facilitating supervisees in learning how to build their private practices

Supervision may also be found within confidential group settings of peer therapists or Consultation with other Licensed Therapists/Analysts. 

The rich experience of a safe and private group setting is the perfect environment in which to exchange theoretical ideas and their clinical application for the best interests of individual patients.

For Professional Colleagues

Being a therapist/analyst is one of the most rewarding professions one can engage in, but it is also demanding due to necessarily strict limitations of discussing one’s work and the emotional requirements of being fully present with and processing a wide range of patient needs. 

 

Any new, developing, or seasoned therapist can find themselves needing help with challenging cases.  Case Consultation in a safe and confidential environment offers the opportunity to discuss deeply those areas of special challenges that may arise in any case and forge fresh approaches in treatment.  Being able to “think together” with a seasoned colleague can be invaluable in finding trustworthy and creative paths toward healing.

 

As a Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst, Dr. Gwyn Erwin brings to her clinical partnerships thirty years of clinical experience and innovative expertise in developmental issues as they play out in current lives, as well as working with trauma. 

“[Striving individuals] want to live, fully
and now,
before it is too late.”

— Dr. Gwyn Erwin, The Developmental Lens
