Psychotherapy Off the Couch
Episode 5. Facing the Demons

In this episode, clinical psychoanalyst Rob Weatherill and clinical psychotherapist Stephanie Regan explain what psychoanalysis is, who needs it and how it can help individuals to face their demons.
It's for those who want to know how the pieces of their whole life story fit together, the past and the present as well as their interior and exterior lives.
Whilst psychoanalysis is certainly not about immediate improvement or a quick fix, more so, it's how have you come to be where you are.
Rob believes that so many of us are strangers to ourselves and we have become programmed to be estranged from ourselves. Psychoanalysis looks at the culture people are born into, the family and the extended family.
