7. Psychoanalytic Perspective • Sigmund Freud • University of Vienna 1873 • Unconscious forces control who we are and why we do things. Also heavily influenced by your childhood. • Wrote 24 volumes on his theories. (1888-1939) • Interpretation of Dreams

8. Sigmund Freud & Psychoanalysis • Medical doctor, nervous disorders • Opened own therapy practice & found he couldn’t explain all peoples’ problems from medicine. • Some issues seemed “unexplainable” or driven by unconscious forces. • Somatoform disorders: Conversion Disorder, Hypochondriasis, Pain Disorder

9. Psychoanalysis • (Def)- therapy which attributes thoughts and actions to unconscious motives & conflicts. • Free Association- “Talk therapy.” Exploring the unconscious by relaxing and saying whatever comes to mind. Troubled past troubled present

10. The mind is like an iceberg. Most thoughts, desires, wishes and fantasies are hidden or under the surface in our unconscious.

11. What do we do with our undesirable thoughts & memories? REPRESS

12. Everything below the surface… • Many thoughts, desires and fantasies are repressed • Freudian slips- A verbal mistake that is thought to reveal a repressed belief, thought, or emotion. • “Please don’t give me any bills, I mean pills.” • “I’m mad you’re here, I mean I’m glad you’re here. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mBi7d6e5KI • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hpu_iEsISuI

13. Freud’s Personality Construct • Operates on “pleasure principle”- Seeks immediate gratification • Libido- psychic energy contained in the ID. • Operates on “reality principle”- seeks to gratify ID in realistic ways. • Voice of consciousness. • Focuses on morals and values.
