A 15-lesson email course by J Jones and AROPA

Status: Continuous

Description

The first task of psychoanalysis - be it didactic or clinic - is the exploration of the unconscious mind. As you know, the unconscious is the deepest strata of our psyche, first discovered by the psychoanalytic research. It is a layer made basically of (representations of the) repressed wishes and this explains why psychoanalysis aims at studying it.

But the access to the unconscious content requires specific methods such as the collection of the free association, the analysis of faulty acts and dreams. This course is designed to teach you the psychoanalytic methods of accessing the unconscious content, including Freud's method of dream interpretation.

The course addresses persons willing to know what are the psychoanalytic means and how they work. Several examples show the way these methods are handled.

You may be interested in this course if you are working in the field of psychotherapy or are interested in means of approaching the content of your unconscious in search of meaning and inspiration.
