Thank you so much, Jimi. I agree, letters are very interesting indeed. When I went to the Kafka museum in Prague I got to read his original letters in German which was fascinating.
In regards to Thomas Ogden I highly recommend Reverie and interpretation: Sensing Something Human. It is a brilliant and insightful book in which he discusses the nature of psychotherapy and the creation of the analytic third ( ie the creation of intersubjective experience between patient and analyst) that allows for shared representations and reverie. It also focus on aspects of the relationship like the aliveness and deadness of the sessions. And how psychoanalysis can help patients rekindle their sense of humanity. Anyway thank you for your recommendations and your work on this plateform !
I was so happy to see your channel name pop up again, and had to chuckle a bit as I was just talking about you to colleagues yesterday in the evening (unconscious summoning? Hahah). I have great respect for what you do and I'm in awe of how well read you are - definitely something to aspire to for me! Thank you for your recommendation, I just ordered "The Primitive Edge of Experience" because a supervisor suggested it but "Reverie and Interpretation" will be added to my list as well 🙏
@PsychodynamicPsychology thank you for you very kind words. So I have answered the summon haha. I also find your work very valuable and I hope you will enjoy Reverie and interpretation. I am also looking forward to your review of 'The primitive edge of experience'!
Thanks for the suggestion but I’m not very knowledgeable about attachment theory in detail. It was brought to my attention that the British Psychotherapy Foundation will have a workshop by Nicola Diamond for a small price at the end of February if you want to google that and attend 😊
Psychoanalytic training is a huge commitment in money and time... but if you are curious to dive into psychoanalytic thinking, books can be a great place to start. I'm happy to take you along :)
I’ve just bought the Collected work of Horney I have 2 psychoanalytic aunts Dr Von Franz and Marion Woodman, but Horney is elbowing her way into the family
@ by their libido shall you know them! I used MLvF’s Puer lectures as a focus for active imagination, by interjecting myself into her recounting of “the problem” I imagined myself in analysis with her. I mean what else are you gonna do when the leaves fall and dark nights set in? 😅
What books would you recommend for someone interested in learning about psychology. I've done a little reading but am looking for something more challenging than The Man Who Mistook Wife for a Hat. It didn't really break down the subject the way I thought it would. But I think the stuff you're recommending here would go way over my head. I'm very interested in social and behavioral psychology. I read about half of Obedience to Authority, and I feel like I was learning a lot from it. But I stopped after he started talking about ego, id and superego. I have a better understanding of those ideas now, but just never picked it up again.
Thank you. Any recommendation for collegues regarding courses, diploma or even masters on the field for remote learning that one could take? No options in my country of residence + can't move.
Then you need to make sure that you're aware of the regulations of the country in which you want to work. Best to look up how psychotherapy is regulated there and then make sure you comply.
@PsychodynamicPsychology Yes, correct. I'm looking for a masters or equivalent program so I can comply where I live, problem being that there are none available so I was looking outside.
The whole thing about procedural memory is an interesting conjecture, but thats all it is. No studies have conclusively proved this is what happens. This is also something that is not new and has been repeated time and again in the Freudian canon. I have no idea what is the novelty factor to discuss it so much.
@@PsychodynamicPsychology Procedural memory and declarative memory are basic concepts in dev and cognitive psychology. Hence my contention about the novelty factor. That said I found the quick summary of the two was a bit dense and may lead people to form incorrect opinions. Here is the issue- 1. Procedural memory exists in both adults and toddlers. It is implicit and it is how people learn to do things - climbing down the stairs, driving, cycling, reading... 2. Declarative Memory - There are two types a. Episodic (events, experiences) b. Semantic. (facts figures knowledge) The issue here is that from what I heard in the video, it implies toddlers don't have declarative memory. This is not true. Toddlers like adults do have declarative memories. But they can't articulate it in the same way adults can, because they are still in the process of acquiring language. How do we know Toddlers have declarative memory? 1. They can recall faces, express "stranger anxiety", look for their favorite toys in places where they remember the toys are kept. 2. They also recall bad experiences with people and things and are likely to show anxiety when forced into interactions with "objects" that caused them duress or harm. So, the contention toddlers don't have declarative memory is false and misguiding. I don't think this is what the video presenter intended to say, but this is how it is coming across.
While most therapies are easily accessible whether it is transactal analysis or the popular cognitive behaviour therapy pasuchiansnalysis i.also with the critics increasing we don't know what is being used when oedipus complex is waning. Psychanalysis is on the declne because it is a long and complex ther py.if you can say what happens in psychoanalysis therspythere are few books explaining what psychanalysis does in therapy
You spent too much time about the author and not much on the ideas and techniques used by karen. What I read in books about fascinated more than the great freud. Karen horney s theories were mind-blowing. The psychoanalysis theorists after freud are truly amazing.the world is moving away from psychanalysis to less complex and easy solutions. So it is imperative that it's ideas are well told and shown how it works in today's fast paced digital crazy world
@@PsychodynamicPsychology interesting... I teach Psychology courses to college students. I'm very interested in scientific approaches, such as: monitoring physiological states (e.g. skin conductance, heart rate variability), epigenetics, and psychometrics. Has the state of the field evolved beyond the traditional case study approaches that were used by the original psychoanalytic pioneers? I think, if anything, that was the one issue I had with the psychoanalytic approach. It was too grounded in philosophy and seemed to not have a lot of empirical support. I'm asking out of just curiosity. I find more traditional approaches like CBT to be exhausting and, to be honest, limited in their ability to help clients.
Fascinating and without adverts you are a saint!
Thank you :) Definitely not a saint but I don't do sponsorships indeed!
Always such a great content and newsletters I absolutely love your content and can't wait to see more❤
Thank you so much 🙏
I appreciate memoir and biography, but I also find correspondence (letters) to be enlightening (as with Kafka, eg). Thanks!
Thank you so much, Jimi. I agree, letters are very interesting indeed. When I went to the Kafka museum in Prague I got to read his original letters in German which was fascinating.
@PsychodynamicPsychology amazing experience. Thanks for sharing! Psycho- biography is an area of interest.
Bravo
I'm motivated to read more, now. 💚🍀
Thank you and I hope you’ll have fun reading more! 🙏
Most of Ogdens books are actually compilations of articles that are easily accessed from any university library account with decent database access.
That’s good to know, thank you! I just bought “The Primitive Edge of Experience” as it was recommended by my supervisor.

You're so welcome, thank you for watching :)
Please make a video explaining attachment theory and the attachment styles. I would love that topic to be explained by you. ❤️❤️
Thanks for the suggestion but I’m not very knowledgeable about attachment theory in detail. It was brought to my attention that the British Psychotherapy Foundation will have a workshop by Nicola Diamond for a small price at the end of February if you want to google that and attend 😊
@PsychodynamicPsychology Alright I'll check it out and thank you so much for the response!
👍 Thank You.
Thank you for watching 🙏
Thank you for those of us not able to afford psychoanalytic training 🙏

I’ve just bought the Collected work of Horney
I have 2 psychoanalytic aunts Dr Von Franz and Marion Woodman, but Horney is elbowing her way into the family
I love the idea of "psychoanalytic aunts", I've sometimes referred to my favourite thinkers as "intellectual crushes". I vote to let Horney in!

Hm... my specialty is psychodynamics so I cannot speak much to social or behavioral psychology recommendations unfortunately.
@@PsychodynamicPsychology What would you suggest for a good book to read as a general starting point for learning about modern psychology?
Thank you so much, Alina! That's great piece of information! Where can I subscribe to your newsletter?
The link is in the description box! RUclips doesn’t allow me to publish links in the comments.
Found it and subscribed! Thank you! ❤you are so kind!
Thank you. Any recommendation for collegues regarding courses, diploma or even masters on the field for remote learning that one could take? No options in my country of residence + can't move.
Would the goal be to work as a psychotherapist or just to gain knowledge for private interest?
@@PsychodynamicPsychology It would be work as a psychotherapist

I think I had heard that the University of Exeter offers (partly) online degrees in psychology/psychotherapy

Oh wow... the psychoanalytic therapies are still focused on those really old, but nonetheless interesting, works.
You're not wrong! I like to say they are perennial :) Luckily, there is also a lot of new things happening and the field is anything but dead.
