  • Psykoanalysens Inntog I Norsk Psykologi Og Psykiatri En Historisk
    Psykoanalysens inntog i norsk psykologi og psykiatri En historisk beretning Den særegne historien psykoanalysen har i Norge, gjør at klinisk psykologi og psykiatri har en mer markert psykodynamisk profil her til lands enn i de andre nordiske landene. Psykoanalysens tidvis dramatiske historiske inntog har på ulikt vis bidratt til å befeste norske psykologers anseelse. TEKST Per Anthi Erik Stänicke PUBLISERT 4. juni 2018 ABSTRACT: The establishment of psychoanalysis in Norway The authors give an account of how psychoanalysis was introduced in Norway, and how the Norwegian Psychoanalytic Society was established in 1934. The importance of its pioneers is outlined. The Norwegian analysts trained in Berlin before 1933, were drawn into a struggle against Nazism. The society’s close relations to Wilhelm Reich and Otto Fenichel are elucidated. This paper describes how the Norwegian society retrieved its status as a component society of the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA) after having been excluded in 1945. It is documented that Willy Brandt, being in exile in Norway in the years 19331940, had a close relationship to Wilhelm Reich. The historical lines that are presented also shed light on the unique position psychoanalysis still have within the Norwegian society, which is quite different from our neighbouring countries. Key words: psychoanalysis, history, Norwegian, nazism, Berlin, Reich, Fenichel, Schjelderup, Hansen Vi skal i denne artikkelen beskrive hvordan psykoanalysen ble introdusert i Norge, og hvorledes Dansk-Norsk Psykoanalytisk Forening (senere kalt Norsk Psykoanalytisk Forening, og heretter omtalt som dette) ble etablert i 1934. Vi vil også gjøre rede for hvordan psykoanalysen har påvirket norsk psykologi og psykiatri siden den ble introdusert her i landet tidlig på 1900-tallet og frem til i dag.

  • Redaktionelt Redaktionelt
    Matrix-2004-1.qxd 28-04-2004 09:50 Side 1 Redaktionelt Dette første nummer af Matrix i 2004 bringer fire artikler samt tre bogomtaler. Tilgivelsesprocessen i psykoterapi af Erik Roj Larsen indleder nummeret. Forfatteren tager udgangspunkt i et fænomen, der overvejende bruges inden for en religiøs, politisk og kulturel forståelsesramme og beskriver det i et psykologisk perspektiv. Tilgivelse defineres som handling, der foregår imellem mennesker, som involve- rer et offer og en krænker, og hvis formål især er – for offerets vedkommende – at genvinde selvrespekten, at bitterheden opløses og at retten til at gøre gengæld op- gives. Ikke mindst i forbindelse med de senere års udvikling af arbejdet med kon- fliktløsningsmodeller som f.eks. sandheds- og forsoningskommissioner er det re- levant at forsøge at indkredse fænomenets psykologiske dimension og foreslå en udvidet anvendelse af tilgivelsen som et element i en terapeutisk proces. Geir Høstmark Nielsen, Per-Einar Binder og Helge Holgersen fra universitetet i Bergen har skrevet en artikel om individualterapi med børn og unge. Artiklen ta- ger udgangspunkt i det faktum, at individualterapi med børn og unge har mistet terræn i forhold til andre behandlingsformer i Norge. Forfatterne har derfor stil- let sig spørgsmålet, om individualterapi med børn fortsat er en velbegrundet be- handlingsform set ud fra såvel en forskningsmæssig, en teoretisk og en økonomisk synsvinkel og konkluderer efter en gennemgang af disse perspektiver med et be- kræftende ja. Den tredje artikel handler om sammenhæng mellem psykiske traumer, forstyrret bevidsthedstilstand og psykotiske symptomer og er skrevet af Ask Elklit. Mange traumatiserede patienters symptomer fremtræder som psykosesymptomer, men synes bedre at kunne forklares ud fra en teori om dissociative processer.

    The Narratives Which Connect… A Qualitative Research Approach to the Narratives which Connect Therapists’ Personal and Private Lives to their Family Therapy Practices Per Jensen Doctorate of Systemic Psychotherapy awarded by the University of East London in conjunction with the Tavistock Clinic, 2008. ITHAKA As you set out for Ithaka hope your road is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery. Laistrygonians, Cyclops, angry Poseidon - don't be afraid of them: you'll never find things like that one on your way as long as you keep your thoughts raised high, as long as a rare excitement stirs your spirit and your body. Laistrygonians, Cyclops, wild Poseidon - you won't encounter them unless you bring them along inside your soul, unless your soul sets them up in front of you. Hope your road is a long one. May there be many summer mornings when, with what pleasure, what joy, you enter harbours you're seeing for the first time; may you stop at Phoenician trading stations to buy fine things, mother of pearl and coral, amber and ebony, sensual perfumes of every kind - as many sensual perfumes as you can; and may you visit many Egyptian cities to learn and go on learning from their scholars. Keep Ithaka always in your mind. Arriving there is what you're destined for. But don't hurry the journey at all. Better if it lasts for years, so you're old by the time you reach the island, wealthy with all you've gained on the way, not expecting Ithaka to make you rich.

It was written at the Library School in Borås as a contribution to the struggle of the maintenance of the free word. In the essay I have been concentrating on how Reich was received in Sweden from the publication of his first book 1927 to the year of 2000. The work started with a biographical chapter and a chapter about Reichs scientific development, which was divided into three phases: one psychoanalytical and marxist, one physiological and biological and a third phase that makes a synthesis of these in a cosmological form. The analytic material has been books and articles from periodicals and papers. The analytic method was partly formed out of George Herbert Meads interactionistic communication theory. In the analysis I have first of all been interested in the ideological struggle in Sweden between left and

  • Hele Nummeret
    INNLEDNING Flere pasienter enn noensinne Aldri tidligere har så mange her i landet blitt behandlet i psykiatrien. Og aldri har så mange stått på «venteliste». I underkant av 20%, nærmere 900.000 nordmenn, har så dårlig mental helse at de ifølge psykiatere bør behandles. Årlig er drøyt 200,000 mennesker innom den psykiatriske helsetjenesten og mange hundre tusen venter, – om psykiatriens anslag skal tas for god fisk. Etterspørselen etter helsetjenester på grunn av dårlig mental helse har aldri vært større. Det betyr ikke nødvendigvis at helsa svekkes i befolkningen. Det økte antallet som ber om hjelp og får det, er delvis en følge av økt behandlingstilbud. Ved flere tilbud og «reklame» for helsetjenester informeres folk flest hvordan de skal forholde seg til følelsessvingninger, angst, avvikende atferd, problemer på jobb og i familie: psykiatrien har løsningen. Nye behandlingstilbud med lavere terskel og bedre tilgjengelighet, skaper økt etterspørsel, og indikasjonene utvides. Antall diagnoser har økt fra 60 i 1952 til 350 i 1994. Folk følger etter med å få løst sine problemer ved hjelp av psykoterapi. Den sterke økningen i etterspørsel etter behandling er samtidig uttrykk for noe generelt: den psykologiske forståelsesmåtens utbredelse og funksjon i det nyliberale, kapitalistiske samfunn. Dette heftet av Vardøger beskriver utviklingen av den institusjonaliserte psykiatrien: hvordan legene i sin tid overtok ansvaret for de «gale», hvilke konsekvenser det fikk at behandlingen ble basert på medisinsk vitenskape- lighet, og hva den aktuelle «Opptrappingsplanen» bidrar til. Men vi starter med begynnelsen. Psykiatriens historie Mennesker med tanke- og følelsesforstyrrelser med tilhørende nedsatt funk- sjonsevne er møtt på ulike måter gjennom historien.
