Frequently Asked Questions

How does psychoanalysis work?

The process of psychoanalysis is based on deep, reflective conversations that help you explore thoughts, emotions, and unconscious patterns. Through this supportive and non-judgmental listening, it becomes possible to better understand your issues and foster meaningful changes.

How long does a session last, and how often should I attend?

Each session lasts, on average, 50 minutes. The recommended frequency is usually once a week, but this may vary depending on your needs and availability.

Psychoanalysis really helps?

Yes, psychoanalysis can help, as it provides a space to understand and resolve deep issues, such as behavior patterns and internal conflicts. Over time, it promotes self-awareness and facilitates emotional balance.

Do I need to have any specific condition to start therapy?

No. Therapy is not just for those facing specific problems, but also for those seeking self-awareness, personal development, and greater emotional balance. Anyone can benefit from this space of reflection.

Is psychoanalysis a confidential process?

Absolutely! All information shared during sessions is treated with complete confidentiality and professional ethics, ensuring the privacy and respect needed for you to feel safe. Our goal is to provide a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can express yourself openly and honestly, which is essential for the therapeutic process.

Is psychoanalysis recognized?

Yes, psychoanalysis is a recognized profession, and in Brazil, it is classified under the CBO (Brazilian Classification of Occupations) with the code 2515-50. To practice the profession, it is necessary to have higher education, and the psychoanalyst must complete the mandatory tripartite psychoanalytic training process, which includes personal analysis, clinical supervision, and theoretical training.

Are psychoanalysis and psychology the same thing?

No, psychoanalysis and psychology are not the same. Psychology studies human behavior in a broader sense, while psychoanalysis is a specific therapeutic approach that focuses on the unconscious and internal conflicts, founded by Sigmund Freud. Not every psychoanalyst is a psychologist, and not every psychologist is a psychoanalyst.

Can I stop therapy at any time?

Yes, you can stop therapy at any time, as long as you feel comfortable with your decision. The most important thing is that the process is beneficial to you. If you choose to discontinue, having a conversation with your therapist can be a good way to reflect on what has been achieved and what may still be worked on in the future.
