In my experience, for an analytical person, one of the challenges is that the analytic mind of the patient may be stronger than the analytic mind of the therapist. We humans appear to often be what may be called lopsided monstrosities. Our strength has become a weakness, in a way.
By this I mean that we tend to use our strengths to try to solve our problems even when another part of us would be more helpful in solving them. For instance, we may analyze, when would be more useful to connect to our feelings, or we may think -- i.e. procrastinate -- when it would be more useful to act.
The aim of the analytical psychotherapy does not appear to be to cultivate our weaker sides. So an analytical person might be able to access the trauma more quickly through these other paths than the analytical mind.
Therefore, it appears that while one of the issues is the aim to have a quick shortcut therapy, even when there are sufficient resources, one-size-fits-all approach might not be enough for a therapeutic process.
This resonates.
I once worked with a coach who helped me realize this. It was the proverbial breakthrough moment. Many people probably could benefit from a similar realization.
And, if you need to process some traumatic experiences -- and practically all of us probably could benefit from such work -- if psychoanalytic psychotherapy does not work for you -- I would suggest trying other kinds of therapy that works more through our emotional or somatic parts.
Meditation for me, hence my username.
That feels like the root cause of a lot of problems in psychiatry.
