The psychodynamic therapist I saw would occasionally give advice on it's very important matters. For the most part though, it is not about skills building. I think this is the only shortfall to this type of therapy. Sometimes I feel like I need a little bit extra in terms of learning new coping mechanisms, but overall I think it's a great approach.
