This is a psychotherapeutic approach that takes place through speech, conversation, and interaction between the client and the therapist. It can be conducted individually, in groups, or with couples, and may take place either in person or online. In this therapeutic model, the therapist is an active participant in the process, aiming to establish an equal and collaborative relationship with the client. The central idea is that healing can emerge through the exploration of meaning, self, and interpersonal connection as it unfolds within the therapeutic relationship.

The therapy is deeply focused on the unique needs of each individual and on how they relate to the world and those around them, as suggested by contemporary psychotherapeutic research. Research findings in developmental psychology, neurobiology, and the social and human sciences indicate that psychological transformation involves shifts in response to the external environment, which can lead to new internal organizational structures. Thus, while focusing on the interpersonal relationship, Contemporary Interpersonal Psychodynamic Psychotherapy integrates clinical interventions and techniques from various schools of thought and approaches.

At the same time, it aligns with modern lifestyles and current models of work and relationships. It emphasizes the present as the primary lens for understanding and change—unlike traditional psychoanalytic interventions, which focus on the past and early childhood.
