The psychoanalytical approach The sessions are likely to take place once or more each week, and during the session the therapist and patient will together set about unravelling those locked away feelings which may have been buried since childhood. Working through these feelings and even remembering them can sometimes be fearful and difficult, but ultimately part of a rewarding and healing process. Our experiences in childhood have shaped us as adults. Some of these experiences will not have been beneficial and may have resulted in use of inappropriate coping methods or defences that may not be working so well in our lives now.
