p. 638 What Would Freud Say? 1) What are you trying to accomplish with free
association? 2) “Just as Jerome began telling his therapist about a
painful childhood experience, he complained of a headache and abruptly ended the session.”
3) “Mr. Phillips has recently begun to express feelings of hostility and resentment toward his therapist, who is consistently friendly, caring, and helpful.”
Learning Goal : Identify psychological treatments.
5
Psychological Therapies
We will look at four major forms of psychotherapies based on different
theories of human nature:
1. Psychoanalytic theory2. Humanistic theory3. Behavioral theory4. Cognitive theory
6
Psychoanalysis: Aims
Since psychological problems originate from childhood repressed impulses and conflicts, the aim of psychoanalysis is to bring repressed feelings into conscious awareness where the patient can deal
with them.
When energy devoted to id-ego-superego conflicts is released, the patient’s anxiety lessens.
7
Psychoanalysis: Methods
Dissatisfied with hypnosis, Freud developed the method of free association to unravel the unconscious mind and its
conflicts.The patient lies on a couch and speaks about whatever comes to his or her mind.

8
Psychoanalysis: Methods
During free association, the patient edits his thoughts, resisting his or her feelings
to express emotions. Such resistance becomes important in the analysis of
conflict-driven anxiety.
Eventually the patient opens up and reveals his or her innermost private thoughts, developing positive or negative feelings (transference) towards the therapist.
9
Psychoanalysis: Criticisms
1. Psychoanalysis is hard to refute because it cannot be proven or disproven.
2. Psychoanalysis takes a long time and is very expensive.
10
Psychodynamic Therapy
Influenced by Freud, in a face-to-face setting, psychodynamic therapists
understand symptoms and themes across important relationships in a patient’s life.
11
Psychodynamic Therapies
Interpersonal psychotherapy, a variation of psychodynamic therapy, is effective in
treating depression. It focuses on symptom relief here and now, not an
overall personality change.
