Psychodynamic Family Therapy

Psychoanalysis is a therapeutic approach preferred by followers of the Freudian school of thought (circa 1900 s) that sees clients as psychologically ill through unconscious conflict within the mind. Freud based his approach on individual clinical case studies, which fail to be empirically tested due to the impossibility of replication. This means that the treatment of clients is an act of faith based on experience of individual therapists own experience.


The conflict that Freud wrote of was the mind s ability to protect itself from harm by creating strategies that Freud named defence mechanisms.

Texas Troops Among Those Who May Suffer Psychological Disorders After Iraq

General David Patraeus, the U.S.’s top military commander in Iraq, stated he was “very concerned” about the trend of ethical behavior displayed by troops in the region.
