"Thank you for visit"

"SAIP (Seoul Addiction Institute of Psychotherapy) "is
Based on the theory of Psychoanalysis, object relations and 'PEF' which is integrated therapeutic method derived by our own more than 10 year clinical experiment about the cause, procedures and recovery of various addictions and stress.  

We welcome those who have tried but failed to get out of addiction and its various symptoms through you own effort, religions and even other counseling experiences.

For those who like above, we want to add such hopeful message; every addiction is not a just phenomenon but compound disease that deeply rooted in personality structure and it becomes obstacles to healthy development and maturity in one’s communication, relationship and self fulfilling life. 

In that way, the fantasy from one's sense of inferiority and superiority wraps up the person bringing false and unrealistic perception about the self. Also the weak foundation of one’s sense of identity makes him or her expose to more destructive situations. 

In that sense, we can see that the recovery of one's sense of identity is connected to the recovery from the addiction. In addition, the recovery of the sense of identity starts when the person has healthy relationship with good enough object. 

Only loved one can give it back to others. Generally, the initial loving relationship which human beings experience is from mother-child relationship. According to the quality of the initial experience of the love, humans develop their ability to give love to the other. In other words, people normally love other people with the same way as they received during their childhood. When people experience relationship conflicts, they easily blame the other not themselves. Because they do not realize that they give other so called ‘bad love’ as they have received. In that way, the addicts hardly make healthy and intimate relationship with others. 

What about yourself? Have you received ‘good love’ or ‘bad love’? 

What kind of love do you give other? 

SAIP helps you out to experience new way of relationship and good quality of love so that you can find your true self and you live your life in healthier and happier ways. As we all agree, the most important thing is the present not the past. However for the better present, we need to accept our past and have future hope.
