Chapter 8: the Birth and Development of Psychoanalysis
Chapter 8: The Birth and Development of Psychoanalysis PSK306-History of Psychology Assoc. Prof. Okan Cem Çırakoğlu [email protected] The Social and Scientific Landscape The general mode of thinking of the growing middle and upper-middle classes in Europe and North America during the close of the 19th century was that the world had reached its desired stability and that they lived in a new era of progress and innovation. The first fourteen years of the 20th century gradually changed these attitudes. • Early Globalization • Nationalism • Scientific Perplexity • Creative Perplexity • The War Sources of Psychoanalysis • Studies of unconscious processes • Studies of sexuality • Studies of psychological resistance • Theories of psychological energy Birth of Psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) probably did not anticipate that his theory and therapeutic method would become among the most influential and controversial in psychology’s history. The First Famous Case 1895 book: Studies on Hysteria As a careful guide, slowly the therapist takes three steps: (a) collecting the reported reflections, (b) analyzing them, and then (c) interpreting them to the patient. Understanding resistances by using the free associations (occurrences) method and focusing on catharsis. This was the method Freud began to call psychoanalysis.

Counseling Skills and Techniques
COUNSELING SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES 3. PSYCHOANALYTIC COUNSELING 3.1. What is Psychoanalytic Counseling? Psychoanalysis is a set of psychological and psychotherapeutic theories and associated techniques, originally popularized by Austrian physician Sigmund Freud and stemming partly from the clinical work of Josef Breuer and others. Since then, psychoanalysis has expanded and been revised, reformed and developed in different directions. This was initially by Freud's colleagues and students, such as Alfred Adler and Carl Gustav Jung who went on to develop their own ideas independently from Freud. Later neo-Freudians included Erich Fromm, Karen Horney, Harry Stack Sullivan and Jacques Lacan. The basic tenets of psychoanalysis include the following: 1. Besides the inherited constitution of personality, a person's development is determined by events in early childhood; 2. Human attitude, mannerism, experience, and thought is largely influenced by irrational drives; 3. Irrational drives are unconscious; 4. Attempts to bring these drives into awareness meet psychological resistance in the form of defense mechanisms; 5. Conflicts between conscious and unconscious, or repressed, material can materialize in the form of mental or emotional disturbances, for example: neurosis, neurotic traits, anxiety, depression etc.; 6. The liberation from the effects of the unconscious material is achieved through bringing this material into the conscious mind (via skilled guidance, i.e. therapeutic intervention). Under the broad umbrella of psychoanalysis there -

Waehler, PhD Committee Member ii ABSTRACT This study investigated the relationship of personality, gender role conflict, and self-stigma on the attitudes of college students toward internet counseling and their intentions to use such services. Previous literature has shown that online therapy can be ethically provided and has effective outcomes. Theorists have wondered if online counseling would minimize the negative impact of masculine gender roles and self- stigma of receiving counseling services; neither of which has been empirically tested. Data were analyzed from 494 college students. Results indicated that self-stigma is more positively related to attitudes and intentions to seek help for online counseling than it is for face-to-face counseling. The gender role conflict aspect of Restrictive Emotionality was positively associated with attitudes toward online counseling. -

Wellesley Centers for Women Wellesley College No.5 Wellesley, MA 02481 2002 Work in Progress Work in Progress is a publication series based on the work of the Stone Center for Developmental Services and Studies at Wellesley College, and it includes papers presented in the Center's Colloquium Series. Work in Progress reflects the Center's commitment to sharing information with others who are interested in fostering psychological well-being, preventing emotional problems, and providing appropriate services to persons who suffer from psychological distress. The publication also reflects the Center's belief that it is important to exchange ideas while they are being developed. Many of the papers, therefore, are intended to stimulate discussion and dialogue, while others represent finished research reports. For those papers which were part of the Colloquium Series, each document includes the substantive material presented by the lecturer, information about the speaker, and, where appropriate, a summary of the subsequent discussion session.

19-26 Negative Therapeutic Reaction As a Relational
PSYCHOTERAPIA 1(172) 2015 strony: 19-26 NEGATIVE THERAPEUTIC REACTION AS A RELATIONAL PHENOMENON Dominik Gaw ęda private practice Summary The aim of the article is to analyze the patient’s paradoxical response to therapy observed and defined by Freud in 1923 and known as the negative therapeutic reaction. In the majority of available books touching on the subject of psychoanalysis, the occurrence is described as a phenomenon stemming from the patient’s psychological construction. In this paper I intend to present the negative therapeutic reaction as a relational phenomenon – a reciprocal process in which the patient and the psychotherapist experience things and react to them in a specific way. Helplessness, shame and/or anger pose the risk of establishing a sadomasochistic collusion between the patient and the analyst or placing the temptation in the psychoanalyst to provoke the patient to quit the therapy. In such circumstances both the psychotherapist and the patient unconsciously aim to develop a state which can be described as negative therapeutic reaction. This article may prove helpful in understanding and preventing the occurrence of a negative therapeutic reaction. To better illustrate the subject, the described theoretical conceptions are supported by clinical material. The last part of the article is devoted to author’s observations and perception of negative therapeutic reaction. Key words: private practice, negative therapeutic reaction, psychoanalytic psychotherapy, therapeutic relationship Introduction In its 90-year history [1 −4] the phenomenon of negative therapeutic reaction was defined in many different ways, which posed the danger of blurring the idea and depriving it of its clinical utility. -

Abstract For over 50 years common supervisory models are being proposed that can be used for different therapeutic approaches. Amongst them two categories are of major interests in order to build a common supervisory approach: structured and developmental models. In the present article we propose a unified model based in person-centred and experiential principles, also integrating principles from structured and developmental models. It can be used for supervision with practitioners originating from a number of modalities, who have completed their studies in psychotherapy and have (at least) some professional experience. -
