Psychotherapy is a dynamic process that provides great explanations for understanding human behavior. Personality development begins during the first years of life. Children born into warm and empathic environments are likely to grow into healthy adults. If this nurturing is absent personality disorders can develop. Psychotherapy explains some of these derailments. Without help many people continue to function in dysfunctional ways. The barriers erected to survive in the past become harmful to their present situation. Psychotherapy helps people re-gain a feeling of safety and self esteem. Through this restoration people are then able to begin enjoying more meaningful relationships.
