The Psychoanalytic Approach

Welcome to this video about the psychoanalytic approach, which is a therapeutic model based on the classic psychoanalysis theory developed by Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist, around the beginning of the 1900s. The psychoanalytic approach acted as a foundation to today’s psychodynamic therapy, though psychodynamic therapy also incorporates some of the ideas of those who followed Freud, such as Carl Jung, Alfred Adler, Melanie Klein, and Erik Erikson. Psychodynamic therapy is used primarily to treat depression and anxiety.
