Psychoanalysis: How to Understand Your Mind | Dr. Rick Hanson, Being Well

Описание: ‪@RickHanson‬ and I explore the ideas, context, and legacy of psychoanalysis, the often-controversial origin point for modern therapy. We discuss psychoanalysis’ early history and key concepts like the unconscious mind, repression, inner conflict, and transference. Alongside those major contributions, we wrestle with what hasn’t aged so well: the reductionism, murky ethics, and entanglements with colonial philosophy and the Victorian worldview.
