Chapter 2 - psychoanalysis
Sigmund Freud
Born 1856 – What was going on in the united states?
Franklin Pierce was president of the U.S.
The Civil War in the United States was still a few years away (1861).
A lot of people die in Kansas over slavery.
500 Mormons leave Iowa City, headed for Salt Lake City.
Early life
Born in Moravia in Czechoslovakia in 1856 to a Jewish family
Had a very loving and protective mother; stern and authoritarian father (20 years older than his mother).
His father was a widower. From his father’s first marriage he had two elder brothers, one of which had a son Sigmund’s age. So… Sigmund was born an uncle.
Freud and his family moved to Vienna when he was four years of age. He stayed there close to 80 years, moving only when the Nazi party took power in 1938.
Freud was the oldest of his five siblings and given preferential treatment.
He had dreams of becoming a general or lawyer, but because he was a Jew he couldn’t.
He began medical studies at the University of Vienna and graduated 8 yrs. later.
Professional life
He established a practice as a clinical neurologist in 1881.
Freud made notable contributions to research. Developing a method to of staining cells for microscopic study.
As a physician, he explored the anesthetic properties of cocaine.
In his private practice Freud focused on the study of neurosis (emotional disturbances.)
He released Interpretation of Dreams in 1900.
There was a group of doctors who worked in Vienna that would hang out and talk: Jung, Adler, Jones, Brill, Sandor.
Origins of psychoanalysis
On his return from France, Freud became influenced by a Viennese physician and friend, Joseph Breuer.
Psychoanalysis began with the case history of Joseph Breuer’s patient, Anna O.
Psychoanalysis - A treatment approach based on the observation that individuals are often unaware of many of the factors that determine their emotions and behavior. These unconscious factors may be the source of considerable distress and unhappiness, and other troubling personality traits.
Anna O. experienced what is now know as conversion disorder (called hysteria at the time)
Breuer used hypnosis and “talking method”
After talking about her father’s illness and death, Anna experienced catharsis (emotional release), and her symptoms were relieved.
She became very attached to Dr. Breuer causing problems with his wife… she offered him a phantom pregnancy as her last symptom.
Freud starts working more on his own…
Freud used the “talking method” to assist his patients in remembering past traumatic events first through hypnosis, but later abandoned this technique when he realized that not all patients could be hypnotized.
Unconscious processes (forces unaware to the person)
Resistance: force that prevents the patient from becoming aware of events and keeps them in the unconscious – not allowing painful memories into consciousness… no ill effects
Repression: blocking of a wish or desire (strong emotions evoked fr ...
Focuses on the internal ,unconcious mental forces that individual are largely unaware of ,but drive emotions and actions. The psychodynamic theory is a psychological theory Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)and his followers applied to explain the origins of human behaviour

From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

3. Sigmund Freud
Born on May 6, 1856, Moravia, which is
now a part of Czech Republic.
His family moved to and settled in Vienna
in 1860 when he was at 4 years old where
Freud remained until 1938.
Attended University of Vienna at the age of
17, In 1881 he graduated in Medicine
Faculty.
After medical school, specialized in
neurology and then studied for a year in
Paris with Jean Martin Charcoat.
Hysteria was common among women in
the Victorian Era.
4. Cont….
Freud was very interested in hypnotherapy.
In 1885, Freud began to distance away from a
medical approach to psychiatry.
Then he returned to Vienna and started working on
hysterical patients from 1887-1897.
He discovered that being in a relaxed state of mind,
patients are open about traumatic past events.
This made Freud a pioneer of catharsis or “talking
cure”
Added use of dream analysis.
5. Cont….
In 1896, Psychoanalysis was officially recognized
(Theory of personality & Method of Psychotherapy).
He released fundamental work for the whole
psychoanalytic theory titled Interpretation of
Dreams (1900).
He died in London on September 23, 1939.
6. Humanistic approach
According to Freud, human nature is basically
deterministic. Our behavior is determined by irrational
forces, unconscious motivations, and biological and
instinctual drives as these evolve through key
psychosexual stages in the first 6 years of life.
The clearest examples of determinism include
misplacing personal possessions, forgetting familiar
names and addresses. Such occurrences as revealing
something of the person’s unconscious motives.
7. Cont…
Instincts are central to the Freudian approach.
Although he originally used the term libido to refer
to sexual energy, he later broadened it to include
the energy of all the life instincts.
These instincts serve the purpose of the survival of
the individual and the human race; they are
oriented toward growth, development, and
creativity.
8. Instinct
Instincts is the natural tendency to behave in a
particular way. It is an inborn fixed pattern of
behaviour in response to certain stimuli.
In Freud’s view, an instinct has 4 principal
characteristics-
o Source- The part of the body from which the
instinct arises.
o Impetus- Amount of force or intensity
associated with the instinct.
o Aim- Any action directed toward tension
discharge or satisfaction.
o Object- The target (person) for this action.
9. Cont…
Sigmund Freud’s theory of drives evolved
throughout the course of his life and work.
He initially described a class of drives known as the
life instincts and believed that these drives were
responsible for much of our behaviour.
Eventually, he came to believe that life instincts alone
could not explain all human behaviour.
With the publication of his book Beyond the Pleasure
Principal in 1920, Freud concluded that all instincts
fall into one of two major classes: life instincts or
death instincts.
10. Life instincts/ Eros
• Sometimes referred to as sexual instincts, the life
instincts are those which deal with basic survival,
pleasure, and reproduction.
• These instincts are essential for sustaining the life of
the individual as well as the continuation of the
species.
While we tend to think of life instincts in terms of
sexual procreation, these drives also includes thirst,
hunger and pain avoidance. The energy created by
the life instincts is known as libido.
Behaviours commonly associated with life instincts
include love, cooperation and other prosocial
actions
11. The life instincts are focused on the preservation of
life, both of the individual and of the species.
This drive compels people to engage in actions that
sustain their own lives, such as looking after their
health and safety.
It also exerts itself through sexual drives, motivating
people to create and nurture new life.
Positive emotions such as love, affection, prosocial
actions, and social cooperation are also associated
with the life instincts.
12. Death instincts/ Thanatos
• The concept of the death instincts was described in
Beyond the Pleasure Principle.
Freud proposed that the goal of all life is death.
Freud believed that people typically channel their
death instincts outwards. Aggression, for example,
arises from death instincts.
Sometimes these instincts towards destruction can
be directed towards, however, which can result in
self- harm or suicide.
13.
14. • In support of his theory, Freud noted that
people who experience a traumatic event
would often re-enact that experience.
• From this, he concluded that people hold an
unconscious desire to die but that the life
instincts largely temper this wish.
15. Personality
Personality has been derived from the Latin word
‘persona’ which means mask.
Personality is the total quality of an individual
behaviour as it is shown in the habits, thinking,
attitudes, interests, the manner of acting and the
personal philosophy of life.
It includes the cognitive, affective and psychomotor
behaviors and covers all the conscious, subconscious
and unconscious also.
16. It is specific and unique for each and every
individual.
Personality of an individual keeps adjusting itself
to the environment on a continuous basis.
17. Personality theories
Personality has been studied in a different
ways. Theories have been developed to
explain the origins and makeup of
personality.
So, personality theories are categorized into
4 categories-
Type and trait theories
Dynamic approach
Learning and behavioral approach
Humanistic approach
18. Type and trait theories- focuses on people’s
characteristics and how these characteristics are
organized into systems.
Dynamic approach- focuses on on-going
interactions among motives, impulses and
psychological processes.
Learning and behavioral approach- emphasize
the ways habits are acquired through basic
conditioning or learning processes.
Humanistic approach- emphasize on the self and
the importance of the individuals subjective of
world.
19. Big Five Personality Traits/ Five
Factor Model-
The Big five personality dimensions provide a very broad
overview of someone’s personality.
It was originally derived in 1970.
Personality is usually broken into components called the
Big Five which are
o Openness to experience
o Conscientiousness
o Agreeableness
o Extroversion
o Neuroticism
20.
21. Openness to experience-
It means being creative and open to new ideas. This
factor indicates how open mind a person is. They
creative thinking and flexible attitude.
Conscientiousness-
Conscientiousness is used to describe the degree to
which person is organized, how discipline he or she is
and can also describe how careful a person is in
certain situation.
22. Agreeableness-
A personality dimension that describe the individual’s
propensity. Someone with agreeableness factor is
good natured cooperative and trusting.
They have an optimistic view of human nature and
they are having difficulty in delivering bad news.
Extroversion-
Extraversion is defined as a behaviour where
enjoys being around people more than being alone.
23. Neuroticism-
Neuroticism is the tendency to experience
emotions, such as anger, anxiety, or depression.
It is sometimes called as emotional instability.
24. Dynamic approach
Dynamic approach involves a search for the
processes by which needs, motives and
impulses- often hidden from view- interact to
produce the individual’s behaviour.
According to Freud, human personality is
complex and has more than single component.
25. Psychoanalytic approach by
Sigmund Freud
Freud’s psychoanalytic theory of personality was
presented as an example of a psychodynamic
approach to the study of human behavior.
The psychodynamic orientation holds that
unconscious mental conflicts control the person’s
behavior.
Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis,
based his psychodynamic concepts almost entirely
on extensive clinical observation of neurotic
patients as well as self-analysis.
26. Cont…
Three crucial aspects of psychoanalysis today are,
1. A therapeutic technique
2. A body of scientific and theoretical knowledge
3. A method of investigation
27. Beginnings
In the decade from 1887-1897 Freud immersed himself
in the serious study of the disturbances in his hysterical
patients, resulting in discoveries that contributed to the
beginnings of psychoanalysis.
Early researches were in collaboration with Joseph
Breuer and then from his own independent
investigations.
Knowing Freud’s interest in hysterical pathology, Breuer
told him about the unusual case of a woman (Case of
ANNA O) he had treated for approximately 1.5 years.
Study of her difficulties proved to be one of the
important stimuli in development of psychoanalysis.
28. Cont….
During these periods, he favored hypnosis early in his
career, but he moved gradually toward free
association.
Instead of concentration method in which urging,
pressing, questioning and trying to defeat patient’s
resistance, actually interfere with free flow of
thoughts he replaced it with free association, which
forms basic rule of psychoanalysis.
Applying such techniques to a steady stream of
patients, Freud pieced together a picture of
personality that shaped much of the field of
psychology.
29. Freuds psychoanalytic
theory
Freud’s psychoanalysis became both a theory
of personality and a method of
psychotherapy.
Psychoanalytic theory has three major parts-
1. Theory of structure of personality
2. Theory of personality dynamics
3. Theory of psychosexual stages
30. Topographic model-
According to this model, human personality functions at three levels
of awareness: conscious, subconscious and unconscious
Conscious: conscious is the part of our mind, about which we are
aware at present. Conscious refers to the perception, thoughts
and feelings existing in a person’s immediate awareness, it
includes our current thinking process.
Subconscious: subconscious content on the other hand, is not
immediately accessible to awareness but we can become aware
of it if we think about them. The subconscious contains materials
just beneath the surface of awareness that can be easily retrieved.
For e.g. Telephone no., childhood memories, the name of best
childhood friend, etc.
32. Structure of personality
Freud organized the structure or model of personality
with three interlocking parts: the id, ego and superego.
• The id contains all our biologically based drives it
operates according to the pleasure principle. Id
driven behaviors are impulsive and may be irrational.
• The ego functions on the basis of reality principle. It
maintains harmony between the external world, the
id and the superego.
33. The superego is referred
as the perfection
principle.
The superego is
important in the
socialization of the
individual as it assist the
ego in control of id
impulses.
34.
35. Conflict arises from within our own mind,
while anxiety from realistic sources in the
outside world.
Conflict happens when the id has some
desires which ego and/or superego do not
agree with.
The ego works as defence mechanisms. We
deal with anxiety through psychological
defenses.
36. Anxiety
According to Freud, anxiety is
an unpleasant inner state that
people seek to avoid anxiety
acts as a signal to the ego that
things are not going right.
37. Freud identified three types of anxiety:
• Neurotic anxiety is the unconscious worry that we
will lose control of the id's urges, resulting in
punishment for inappropriate behavior.
• Reality anxiety is fear of real-world events and is
based on ego. The cause of this anxiety is usually
easily identified. For example, a person might fear
receiving a dog bite when they are near a menacing
dog. The most common way of reducing this anxiety
is to avoid the threatening object.
38. Moral anxiety involves a fear of violating our
own moral principles. Moral anxiety comes
from the superego. It appears in the form of
fear of violating values or moral codes and
feelings like guilt or shame.
39. When anxiety occurs, the mind’s first response is to
seek rational ways of escaping the situation by
increasing problem- solving efforts and a range of
defense mechanisms may be triggered.
There are ways that the ego develops to deal with
the id and superego.
In order to deal with this anxiety, Freud believed
that defense mechanisms helped shield the ego
from the conflicts created by the id, superego and
reality.
40. Ego defense mechanism
Defense mechanisms often appear
unconsciously and tend to distort or
falsify reality.
When the distortion of reality occurs,
there is a change in perception which
allows for a lessening in anxiety
resulting in a reduction of tension
one experiences.
Sigmund Freud noted a number of
ego defenses that were noted
throughout his work but his daughter,
Anna Freud, developed and
elaborated on them.
41. Why do we need
defenses?
• Defense mechanisms are invented by the Ego in an
attempt to resolve the conflict between Id and Superego –
so that personality can operate in a healthy manner.
• Unwanted Memories banished to the unconscious, do not
disappear. They continue to exert a powerful influence on
behavior.
• Defense mechanisms help keep urges, thoughts, and
memories that cause anxiety in the unconscious.
• If it is used once in a while, the purpose of using it is to
reduce stress.
• But if it is used frequently, it means the individual are
trying to avoid facing reality
42. Freud suggested that the ego reacts to the
threatened breakthrough of id impulses in either of
two ways:
• by blocking the impulse from expression in
conscious behavior
• by distorting it to such a degree that the original
intensity is markedly reduced or deflected.
43. All defense mechanisms share two common
characteristics:
• They operate at an unconscious level and are
therefore self-deceptive and
• They distort, deny, or falsify perception of reality,
so as to make anxiety less threatening to the
individual.
44. The defense mechanism are as follows:

Example Overuse can lead to
Denial
The mother of a child who is fatally ill refuse to
admit that there is anything wrong, even
she is fully informed of the diagnosis and
expected outcome.
Repression, dissociative
disorders
Displacement
A husband comes home after a bad day at

A jealous boy who hates his elder brother
show him exaggerated respect and affection
towards him.
Failure to resolve

Regression An adult throws a temper tantrum when he
does not get his own way.

progression and
development of
personality.
Repression Forgetting a loved one’s birthday after a fight.
Conscious perception of

Sublimation Aggressiveness might be transformed into
competitiveness in business or sports.
Sublimation allows
instincts to be
channelled, rather than
blocked or diverted.
Projection A person who blames another for his own
mistakes is using the projection mechanism.
Fails to learn to take
personal responsibility.
May develop into
delusional tendencies.
46. The Psychosexual stages
The psychoanalytic theory of development is based on two
premises.
The first, the genetic approach, emphasizes that early
childhood experiences play a critical role in shaping adult
personality.
The second premise is that a certain amount of sexual energy
(libido) is present at birth and a series stages of psychosexual
stages that are rooted in the instinctual processes of the
organism.
Freud put heavy emphasis on biological development in
general and on sexual development in particular.
47. In his theory of child development, Freud described a
succession of stages revolving around body zones.
Freuds idea was that from birth on, we have an tendency
to seek pleasure, especially through physical stimulation
of parts of the body that sensitive to touch: the mouth,
anus and the genitals.
Freud referred to these parts of the body as erogenous
zones.
He saw the pleasure derived from touching and rubbing
these sensitive zones as erotic or sexual for infants as well
as adults.
Freud believed that if a child’s needs at one of the
psychosexual stages were either unsatisfied or
oversatisfied, fixation would take place.
48. Oral stage- Birth to age 1
According to Freud, the infant obtains
sensual pleasure first by sucking and
later by biting.
Feeding and contact with the mother,
mouthing new objects, and even
relief of teething pain by biting- all
help to make the mouth the focus of
pleasure during the first year.
A baby given too little opportunity to
suck, or made anxious about it, may
acquire an oral fixation which, in
adulthood, may foster excessive oral
behavior.
49. Anal stage- age 1 to 3
This stages occurs when parents are toilet
training their children and teaching them to
avoid prohibited behavior connected with
excretion.
At this time the region around the anus
becomes highly sensitive to the stimulation of
“holding on” and “letting go”.
The first part of the anal stage involves pleasure
from expulsion of feces, the latter part involves
pleasure from retention.
Freud maintained that fixation at the first
substage results in adult characteristics of
messiness and disorder; fixation at latter stage
results in excessive compulsiveness,
overconfirmity and exaggerated self- control.
50. Phallic stage- age 3 to 5
At this time, child develops sensual
feelings towards the parent of the
opposite sex.
Freud called these thoughts and feelings
in boys the Oedipus complex after the
mythical story of Oedipus, who
unknowingly killed his father and married
his mother.
In girls, he called these thoughts and
feelings as Electra complex after
Agamemnon’s daughter, who arranged for
her mother to be married.
51. In the phallic stage, the boy’s desire for
stimulation of his penis is associated with his
attachment to his mother and he comes to
desire her in a sexual or at least in a sensual
way.
He fears retaliation by his father, retaliation
aimed at the source of the problem- the boy’s
penis and boy fears castration.
To cope with this anxiety the boy begins to
construct psychic defenses i.e. identification-
the boy tries to be like his father.
52. For girl, the sequence begins with an erotic
focus on the father. The girl also notices the
she does not have the sexual organs of her
father or brother and she experiences
“penis envy”.
She suspects that she may actually have
been castrated by her mother, this makes
her angry, and she comes to resent and
devalue her mother.
She also suspects that if she takes on her
mother’s characteristics she will stand better
chance in her own romantic relationship
with her father.
53. Latency stage- age 6 to 11
Latency period was not considered by
Freud to be very important in
development of personality.
As the child learns more about the
world, sexuality is largely repressed and
the ego expands.
54. Genital stage- age 11 to
adulthood
Puberty marks the beginning of the
genital stage, when mature
heterosexual interest appears.
There are 3 major sources of sexual
arousal during this period: memories
and sensations from earlier
childhood periods, physical
manipulation of genitals and other
erogenous zones and hormonal
secretions.
Tis stage is set for enjoyment of
adult sexuality- which for Freud the
epitome of healthy development.

unconscious desire to eliminate the
of the same sex and to possess the
of the opposite sex.

57. Therapeutic methods of
psychoanalysis
Freud was the founding father of
psychoanalysis a theory which
explains human behavior and a
method for treating mental illness.
Psychoanalysis is often known as
the talking cure. Typically, Freud
would encourage his patients to
talk freely regarding their
symptoms, and to describe exactly
what was on their mind.
58. Aim of Psychoanalysis
Therapy
• The aim of psychoanalysis therapy is to release
repressed emotions and experiences, i.e. make
the unconscious conscious. “Gaining insight”
• Psychoanalysis is commonly used to treat
depression and anxiety disorders.
• Treatment focuses on bringing the repressed
conflicts to conscious, where the client can
deal with it realistically and maturely.
59. Psychoanalytic Therapy Basic
Techniques:
Catharsis: The release of pent-up emotion. The
therapist helps clients alter their self- perceptions and
behavior.
Freud, along with Breuer, first discovered the benefits
of catharsis through hypnosis where hysterical patients
were able to verbalize an early precipitating causal
event. Unfortunately, many of his patients could not
remember the origin of their symptoms even on
command. So, he developed free association and
interpretation to bring everyone to the emotional state
of catharsis that was necessary for their cure.
60. Free Association: The client lies on a couch and the
analyst sits at the head of the couch beyond the client’s
line of vision. The analyst then orders the client to say
whatever comes to mind. Through this method the
unconscious thoughts and conflicts are given freedom to
reach the conscious mind.
The fundamental rule of psychoanalysis counselling
requires clients to tell the counsellor whatever thoughts
and feelings into their minds, regardless of how personal,
painful or seemingly irrelevant.
The counsellor must remain patient and non-judgmental
and insists the client to continue.
The counsellor must look for continuity of thoughts and
feelings, rational patterns of speech.
61. The counsellor must pay attention to the affect or
feelings behind the client’s verbalization, noting the
client’s gestures, tone of voice and general body
language during free association.
At this point the counsellor offers some
interpretations of the client’s statements to try open
another door for free association.
62. Interpretation: Three major areas of interpretations are
dreams, Parapraxia, and Humor.
Dreams: Freud believed dreams expressed wish fulfilment.
As the individual matures, the wish, as exposed the
becomes distorted and disguised. The ego fights the
conscious wish, which thus is pushed back to the
unconscious mind. When sleeping, repressive are weaker,
and forbidden desires and feelings can find an outlet in
dreams. The counsellors role is to listen to the client’s
dream and help the client interpret the dream’s
in free association technique.
63. Certain objects in dreams were universal symbols for Freud: e.g.
car symbolizes analysis or direction of life/ jewel cases.
The key for understanding one’s dream is identifying the basic
theme by stripping away details as names, places, and things;
leaving only the action.
Freud believed every dream to be a confession and a by-product
of repressed anxiety producing thoughts or unfulfilled sexual
desires which expressed the superego’s guilt and self-
punishment. Nightmares result from the desire for self-
punishment.
64. Parapraxia: Freudian slips of a tongue/ Parapraxia are
consciously excused as harmless mistakes but through them the
ID pushes the unconscious material through to the conscious.
ex: forgetting a person’s name, cutting a finger while peeling
potatoes- has unconscious motivation. The analyst must take all
these unconscious mistakes and arrange them into a conscious
pattern.
Humor: Jokes, puns, and satire are all acceptable means for
unconscious urges to gain access to the conscious; they
simultaneously disguise and reveal repressed thoughts which are
generally generated from the ID and Superego e.g. sexual
thoughts are usually repressed forming aggressive thoughts
expressed in humor, satire, and witticisms.
65. Analysis of Transference: Transference generally is a
product of unfinished business with a significant person
from the client’s childhood.
Clients commonly transfer their feelings, thought,
expectations about the significant other to the
counsellor. Counselling provides a stage for re-
enacting unresolved conflicts with the counsellor,
can help client’s deal with them in more effective and
functional ways.
66. Transference relationships can become a real
battle ground when love feelings directed
toward the counsellor are rejected and the
client in turn rejects the counsellor by
resisting his every effort to be helpful.
Counter transference occurs when the
counsellor begins to view a client as
other than a client. In such case referral to
another professional is recommended.
67. Analysis of Incomplete Sentences:
This procedure maybe especially useful in
acquainting counsellors with children and in
establishing better rapport with those who are
anxious, fearful or reluctant to talk.
68. E.g.:
• The things I like to do the most is –
• The person in my family who helps me the most is
–
• My friends are –
• I feel saddest (or happiest) when –
• When I grow up, I want –
• My teacher is –
• I wish my parents would –
• Mom is-
69. Psychoanalytic Therapy
Process Limitations
Doesn’t take all the client’s needs into
consideration. (e.g. sometimes clients have a need
to be alone or regress.)
Psychoanalysis isn’t for everyone and it is still long
in duration compared to more brief theories.
The writings of some psychoanalytic theorists
(Freud and Jung in particular) are technical and
hard to read.
