Object Relations Psychotherapy
Object Relations Psychotherapy is a form of therapy that explores how early relationships with caregivers influence current emotional health and relationships. It helps individuals understand how past experiences shape their feelings, expectations, and behaviors toward others. By examining these internalized "objects" (people from one's past), therapy aims to resolve conflicts, reduce emotional distress, and improve interpersonal connections. The approach emphasizes gaining insight into unconscious patterns and developing healthier ways to relate to others, fostering personal growth and emotional well-being.
