I AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF R. Daniel McCauley for the Master of Arts in History presented December 4, 1985. Title: Wilhelm Reich's Character Analysis in its Historical Context. APPROVED BY MEMBERS OF THE THESIS COMMITTEE: Go(°.j~ Dodds The thesis is an attempt to reconcile contradictions and devise historical meaning from a problematic text. The book is Wilhelm Reich's Character Analysis, first published in 1933. This influential psychoanalytic work embodies both a radical social theory and disturbing authoritarian attitudes. The thesis uses a variety of methodologies, in particular Roland Barthes' techniques for ascribing 2 historical meaning to certain formal qualities of writing. The thesis proceeds from a summary of methodological studies in intellectual history and criticism, including those of I. A. Richards, R. G. Collingwood, and Dominick LaCapra, as well as Barthes, to a description of Character Analysis and its various historical contexts - biographical, social, and intellectual.

  • (REICHIAN) THERAPY by Neil Schierholz Psyd
    TOWARD A PATIENT-CENTERED UNDERSTANDING OF ORGONOMIC (REICHIAN) THERAPY by Neil Schierholz PsyD San Francisco, California Copyright © 2011 by Neil Schierholz PsyD Los Angeles (310) 866-0440 San Francisco (415) 821-2345 [email protected] Abstract THIS STUDY EXPLORES the experience of patients who have been treated with orgonomic (Reichian) therapy. The purpose of this study is to shed light on the experience of undergoing this therapy from the perspective of patients who benefited from it. A brief history of Reich and his theory and practice of orgonomic therapy is chronicled along with clinical and autobiographical accounts of treatment cases. Seven current or former patients who have been treated with and benefited from orgonomic therapy were interviewed using a qualitative, heuristic method yielding rich experience-near descriptions of the subjective experience, conscious and unconscious meanings, and functions/experience of orgonomic therapy. Interview data were inductively coded producing individual depictions for each research participant, a composite depiction, and six core themes of the experience: (a) entry into orgonomic therapy, (b) orgonomic therapist attributes, (c) orgonomic biopsychotherapy, (d) experience of the therapeutic process, (e) therapeutic results, (f) thoughts and feelings about orgonomic therapy. The results are consistent with Reich’s theory and practice of orgonomic therapy and provide a broader, deeper, and richer understanding of the patient experience directly from the aggregate voices of those who have experienced and benefited from it first-hand. The results also indicate that patients who are treated with and benefit from orgonomic therapy feel innately and intuitively drawn to it. Clinical implications are offered along with recommendations for future study.

What is psychoanalysis? Psychoanalysis is both a theory of the human mind and a therapeutic practice. It was founded by Sigmund Freud between 1885 and 1939 and continues to be developed by psychoanalysts all over the world. Psychoanalysis has four major areas of application: 1) as a theory of how the mind works 2) as a treatment method for psychic problems 3) as a method of research, and 4) as a way of viewing cultural and social phenomena like literature, art, movies, performances, politics and groups. What is psychoanalytic treatment for? Psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy are for those who feel caught in recurrent psychic problems that impede their potential to experience happiness with their partners, families, and friends as well as success and fulfilment in their work and the normal tasks of everyday life.

Using a qualitative design, 6 participants from mental health agencies in Twin Cities, MN were interviewed. A semi- structured interview of fourteen questions was used based on the literature review to further explore the research question. Findings suggest that there is not one main element that makes DBT effective when using DBT with people with a diagnosis of BPD, but several elements that come together in order to make it an effective treatment approach.

  • 1 from Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy to the Four Defining Characteristics of Self-Transcendence (ST) Paul T. P. Wong Introductio
    1 From Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy to the Four Defining Characteristics of Self-Transcendence (ST) Paul T. P. Wong Introduction The present paper continues my earlier presentation on self-transcendence (ST) as a pathway to meaning, virtue, and happiness (Wong, 2016), in which I introduced Viktor Frankl’s (1985) two-factor theory of ST. Here, the same topic of ST is expanded by first providing the basic assumptions of logotherapy, then arguing the need for objective standards for meaning, and finally elaborating the defining characteristics of ST. To begin, here is a common-sense observation—no one can remain at the same spot for life for a variety of reasons, such as developmental and environmental changes, but most importantly because people dream of a better life and want to move to a preferred destination where they can find happiness and fulfillment. As a psychologist, I am interested in finding out (a) which destination people choose and (b) how they plan to get there successfully. In a free society that offers many opportunities for individuals, there are almost endless options regarding both (a) and (b). The reality is that not all purposes in life are equal. Some life goals are misguided, such as wanting to get rich by any means, including unethical and illegal ones, because ultimately, such choices could be self-defeating—these end values might not only fail to fill their hearts with happiness, but might also ruin their relationships and careers. The question, then, is: What kind of choices will have the greatest likelihood of resulting in a good life that not only benefits the individual but also society? My research has led me to hypothesize that the path of ST is most likely to result in such a good life.

  • Marriage and Family Therapy Core Competencies© December, 2004
    112 South Alfred Street Alexandria, VA 22314 Telephone: (703) 838-9808 Fax: (703) 838-9805 Website: www.aamft.org Marriage and Family Therapy Core Competencies© December, 2004 The marriage and family therapy (MFT) core competencies were developed through a collaborative effort of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and interested stakeholders. In addition to defining the domains of knowledge and requisite skills in each domain that comprise the practice of marriage and family therapy, the ultimate goal of the core competencies is to improve the quality of services delivered by marriage and family therapists (MFTs). Consequently, the competencies described herein represent the minimum that MFTs licensed to practice independently must possess. Creating competencies for MFTs and improving the quality of mental health services was considered in the context of the broader behavioral health system. The AAMFT relied on three important reports to provide the framework within which the competencies would be developed: Mental Health: A Report of the Surgeon General; the President’s New Freedom Commission on Mental Health’s Achieving the Promise: Transforming Mental Health Care in America; and the Institute of Medicine’s Crossing the Quality Chasm. The AAMFT mapped the competencies to critical elements of these reports, including IOM’s 6 Core Values that are seen as the foundation for a better health care system: 1) Safe, 2) Person- Centered, 3) Efficient, 4) Effective, 5) Timely, and 6) Equitable. The committee also considered how social, political, historical, and economic forces affect individual and relational problems and decisions about seeking and obtaining treatment. The core competencies were developed for educators, trainers, regulators, researchers, policymakers, and the public.

  • Transference and Countertransference
    Washington Center for Psychoanalysis Psychoanalytic Studies Program, 2018-2019 TRANSFERENCE AND COUNTERTRANSFERENCE 18 December 2018- 19 March 2019 Tuesday: 5:30-6:45 Faculty: David Joseph and Pavel Snejnevski “I believe it is ill-advised, indeed impossible, to treat transference and countertransference as separate issues. They are two faces of the same dynamic rooted in the inextricable intertwining with others in which individual life originates and remains throughout the life of the individual in numberless elaborations, derivatives, and transformations. One of the transformations shows itself in the encounter of the psychoanalytic situation.” Hans Loewald Transference and Countertransference OVERVIEW OF THE COURSE Although it was first formulated by Freud, transference, as we currently understand it, is integral to all meaningful human relationships. In a treatment relationship characterized by the therapist’s professional but friendly interest, relative anonymity, neutrality regarding how patients conduct their lives, non-judgmental attitude, and a shared conviction that associating freely and speaking without censorship will best facilitate the goals of the treatment, patients come to experience the therapist in ways that are powerfully and unconsciously shaped by aspects of earlier important relationships. The patient is often not aware that he is “transferring” these earlier experiences to the therapist but is also often completely unaware of “transferred” reactions to the therapist that only become manifest as the treatment relationship develops. Laboratory experiments in animals demonstrate neurophysiological processes that cast light on the processes that contribute to transference reactions in humans. If a rat is trained to respond negatively to the sound of a bell that is paired with an electric shock, recordings from a single cell in the structure of the brain that responds to fear will indicate nerve firing.

  • 1 the Eight Stages of Development, Created by Erik Erikson (1956), Is a Widely Used and Universally Accepted Model Explaining Th
    THE IMPACT OF EXPOSURE TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ON CHILD DEVELOPMENT The Eight Stages of Development, created by Erik Erikson (1956), is a widely used and universally accepted model explaining the developmental tasks involved in the social and emotional development of children that continues into adulthood.2 Each developmental stage includes a major crisis that the individual must resolve in order to move to the next stage as a socially and emotionally healthy individual. If crises are not overcome, pathology or developmental difficulty may result. The five stages of development included below are: Infancy, Early Childhood, Play Age, School Age, and Adolescence. Erikson’s model also includes three stages (Young Adulthood, Middle Adulthood, and Later Adulthood) that are not covered in this document due to the focus on childhood exposure to domestic violence. Exposure to domestic violence at any age can create delays in the accomplishment of important developmental tasks. 7 However, there are several outside factors that mitigate the impact of childhood exposure including: • The severity and duration of trauma, 11 • Developmental maturity (how far along the child is in his or her personality development when the trauma occurs), 8, 11 • Temperament, 11 • Personality make-up • Cognitive and emotional capacity, 7, 9 • Achievement, 7 • Self-esteem • Characteristic coping style, 5, 7 • Parental interpretations or expressions of parental distress, 10 • Availability of support, 5 and • Age.8 In addition, children in shelters may have higher levels of trauma symptomology given the added stressors of moving suddenly, being separated from family, friends, school, and community, and the often chaotic experience of shelter life.6 The charts below provide bulleted lists describing the potential signs or symptoms of trauma that may result from childhood exposure to domestic violence.
