I know I'm late to this thread, but OP, I'm curious to know what you don't like about psychoanalysis. I'm in what I would call psychodynamic therapy, rooted in psychoanalysis, and I'm also thinking of leaving my therapist. After 4 years of 3x per week therapy, I'm still dealing with awful depression and anxiety.
For me, I think it's less about the brand of therapy and more that I've just never felt good about my therapist, never felt understood and have always hated his cold, formal style, despite all his other excellent qualities.
