What is psychoanalytic psychotherapy?
What is psychoanalytic psychotherapy?
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy is a form of talk therapy that is based in psychoanalysis theory. While our therapists are trained in psychoanalytic theory and exploring the unconscious, they may include other theoretical lenses to tailor their approach to meet your specific needs. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy typically requires meeting 1-2 times a week, has a flexible treatment duration and is covered by insurance. If you’re interested in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, please fill out our inquiry form.
What is psychoanalysis?
What is psychoanalysis? Psychoanalysis is a therapeutic treatment based upon the idea that people are frequently motivated by unrecognized wishes and desires that originate in one’s unconscious. Through techniques such as free association (speaking what comes to mind) and dream analysis, an analyst will help you create meaning from your unconscious processes. Psychoanalysis typically requires meeting in person 3-5 times a week, lasts for 2-3 years minimum, and is generally not covered by insurance. If you’re interested in classic psychoanalysis, please reach out directly to education@chicagoanalysis.org.

Treatment
Do you need to see a shrink? This is as fine as it gets in terms of quality psychotherapy in Chicago, and I say this as a psychiatrist myself. The institute is only one of a handful in the country, and the analysts have all undergone extensive training. This is no joke if you’ve got some problems that need to be dealt with! Highly recommended!

Treatment
Chace thinks in deep, creative, and unconventional ways. Whatever he doesn’t understand, he works to learn about. I’m always impressed by his ability to find meaning in patients’ experiences, all while considering their perspective with care and empathy.
