Clinical Psychology Part 1: Sigmund Freud and Psychoanalysis
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2023
- It's time to dive into clinical psychology! To discuss this topic we must first discuss Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis. The whole lying down on a couch and talking to a therapist thing? That's Freud's. But he also had some bizarre ideas regarding psychosexual stages, the Oedipus complex, and more. Let's go through them all now!

I enjoy your lessons a lot. I appreciate the depth and diversity of your content. This episode was especially digestible. Thanks.
I love how Dave absolutely demolished the flailing Tour, and now hes back to his regular videos like nothing happened.
Another way to jab him, by acting like nothing happened
Dave also apparently made a bad name for himself
@@celestialsatheist1535 in tour’s circle😂
@@celestialsatheist1535yep, they did exactly what Dave predicted, focused on his tone through the debate,
Somebody once said "you can't get more empirical than 'If I look here I'll find this thing' and you look and it's there".
@SS-rf1ri That was dave actually! He was discussing the discovery of Neptune on a flat earth debunk.
This could be useful for my upcoming exam. Thank you prof Dave!
I learned to distance myself from the Freudian vision of the human psyche. He jump-started the whole clinical psychology field and that was a good thing, but his original vision was very raw and - I think - quickly outdated by the works of Carl Jung and many other brilliant minds that came after. I have the feeling Freud himself wasn't a very nice guy, he ironically lacked empathy and was full of himself.
@@RichardKoenigsberg Hello, many trained psychiatrist today believes in the DSM-5. I used to, paid my price, figured it out and corrected my perspective. All is well, repaired for me and many of my friends.
The DSM is a scientific story, evolving.
What makes you think it is forever as is? Don't you want to help moving forward like me, you know, one step at a time? Help create V6 and the next ones?
I meet some trained psychologists on Monday, I think I can help at my humble level, as a recovering "desaxed".
I believe we all can if we choose to help, ourselves and others as equals, to grow together with less pain for longer (and in a way, forever).
Bye 👍☮️🙇🖐️
Bro Carl Jung said read Frued and Adler before you read him. We are animals and he spoke more about other things than sex. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.
The criticism of Freud's work being Eurocentric and having little or no application to human populations with very different social traditions and attitudes has some merit, I suspect.
Best science communicator in any fields, love you dave!
I love your lessons Dave, you are one of the best Science and Education channels online!
Freud was an applied philosopher. He thought up his ideas and then went about trying to shoehorn 'evidence' into his already developed idea. His only value was taking psychology in the vague direction of science.
I read Freud's books on dreams. Interesting ideas, but over and over the refrain of "how do you know that?" echoes in my head.
I love this series and hope you keep educating us. Go! Go! Go! Go!
Always enjoyable and educational, thanks Dave !
Seriously enjoyable video - the range of in-depth information available on this channel is astounding! Fun information everywhere 👍
Hi Professor. This is not the right video for my comment, but anyway, I want to thank you for absolutely, amazingly clear and understandable way you teach. You made me ACTUALLY learn calculus and linear algebra. I hope you will add statistics course in the future :))
Please keep up great work. People who cannot afford to spend money on expensive education need teachers like you.
Hello, fellow norwegian 8)
This is splendid presentation. The denial of psychosexual development is more based on barriers of some groups. The reason is however at the individual level: we cannot see or we dont want to see our backgrounds.
It is important theory and obvious to everyone, who can follow children.
thanks for this lesson, Professor Dave.
The is amazing. I have this for my exam next week :)
I know this is off topic but I am curious, what did you do with the gift by James Tour from the debate?
thanks Dave
Thanks, this was interesting. I think it would be useful to note that freud's ideas changed during the course of his career. He outlined the function of the Id, ego and super-ego in later writings. What interests me is how these are quite close to CBT. He saw fantasy and the Id as distorting a client's perception of reality. The aim of psychoanalysis became lessening these distortions.
Freud got things wrong, but what's amazing is just how much he got right, in his early years, simply working with a small amount of clients in Vienna.
Diagnosing ppl with catatonic schizophrenia for dreaming he's wrong? Not that great, as the label implies.
ive already taken my AP Psych exam, but im sure this will be useful for people who take it next year :)
Bro
This video went roller coaster in the second half
Was introduced to Freuds work in middle school, since then I’ve been different. 🤷🏾🤷🏾🤷🏾🤷🏾
One of the founding fathers of the field of psychology. A great mind and gift to humanity!!
And a pedophiel
Love this.Never stop this❤
My study background is a bachelor's in Computer science and now I am studying a master's in cognitive science with a specialization in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. I took some technical classes too but I enjoyed these two majors so much and in the future, I want to work as a clinical psychologist. My next plan is to do PhD as well from any German university. But every time I discuss this with any senior I get the same reply that I cannot be a clinical psychologist. Would you guide me on what should i do or any other field I should search about if I can't be a clinical psychologist.?I just want a bright future i struggled a lot in finding my interest. And now I need help from seniors.
I am a psychology student from Ghana and here's my question
How true is it that Anna O opposed any use of psychoanalytic treatment because she didn't believe that really helped her recover from conversion disorder?
Please I need clarification on this
Why do we use a science based method, wich requires group study’s and research based approached, for assessing specific individuals who may not have specific symptoms.
My professor hasn’t gotten to me.
Dave, you continue to surprise me when it comes to your research and way of delivering content to us, that's why I've been a long-time viewer of yours. As a psychologyst myself, just wanted to point out one little thing that might concern the content you've so magestfully brought us today.
The Electra Complex is NOT a Freudian idea nor is it mentioned in any freudian text; it is a junguian ideia. What we will find, whowever, is Freud referring to the girl's side of the Oedipux Complex as the Feminine Oedipus. (I'm not quite sure how it is named in English, I've read Freud in portuguese for my whole life since I'm brazilian.)
That said, there's only one thing that has not been explained in this video and I think is essencial for discussing Freud's ideias. That being the word "sexual" in his theory. That word has a whole different meaning when we're looking through psychoanalysis lens. Sexual and sexuality are two different concepts. Sexual means: "everything that can bring you pleasure", sexuality is, more preciseley, the stages and every thought that happens in each and every stage. That's why we call it the "psychosexual theory". This is largely covered in his book "Three Essays on the Therory of Sexuality" (1905).
That's why it can sound a little outstanding to the average viewer knowing that the child "discovers" masturbation. That concept is intrinsic to the sexual concept. That's a way to create tension and then remove said tension.
Another little thing is that the phallic stage is not centered in the genitals; it is, however, centered in the genital AREA. This stage is called "phallic" stage due to the concept of the "phallus" far too complex to fit in a UA-cam comment. The genital stage is, of course, centered around the genitals.
About the "heteronormative" affirmation towards the end, you're correct. Though Freud explained that as his concept of "inversion" and it is NOT a sexual aberration. The way he goes about it is saying that everything regarding sex that's not going to reproduce the species is a "perversion". Knowing that, we can confidently say that oral sex, for exemple, is a form of perversion.
Of course we'd need to discuss perversion as whole, but for now, that's just a little bit of extra information.
These are some of Freud's texts that can help us understand a little bit more about what I said.
Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality (1905);
Remembering, Repeating and Working-Through (1914);
On Narcissism: An Introduction (1914);
Instincs and their vicissitudes (1915);
The Dissolution of the Oedipus Complex (1924);
Thank you so much for this video, I really appreciate your work and everything you bring to the table.
You're amazing.
Freud always claimed his use of cocaine was highly moderated. His preoccupation with sex makes me think it probably wasn't. Haha.
Hey Dave, I just wanted to let you know that I'm getting Prager U advertisements before your videos every hour. Pretty sure content creators can ban specific advertisers, I'm not sure if it's something you want to do, but I figured I would leave this comment here
Interesting! I guess it’s fun for those morons to pay me.
Just the way that licensure works in the United States, a clinical psychologist unfortunately is the last person to provide psychotherapy in most areas. Clinical psych people go through extensive psychometric training, and a lot of them do nothing but administer standardized tests.
Psychotherapy tends to be more frequently delivered by social workers and people with an MS or MA in psychology, rather than by a clinical psychologist per se. A person cannot practice as a psychologist in the United States unless they have a doctorate.
In my little part of the world, for instance, we have dozens of psychology trained psychotherapists and several more dozen social workers who deliver psychotherapy. And we have two clinical psych people, and they do nothing but diagnose and give assessments.
In theory, clinical psychology is the discipline that examines this material, but in practice, psychotherapy actually comes from counseling departments and from social work departments. And of course medical school where psychiatrists are trained.
Assessments and diagnosis and administering standardized tests are far more lucrative than psychotherapy, too. If you do assessments for ADHD and autism, you will make three or four times as much each day as you would if you are delivering psychotherapy sessions. I think money pushes clinical psych people away from psychotherapy.
I will also note that clinical psych people occupy the lowest rung of the APA. The APA values researchers and professors and organizations, it promotes research and gives awards to researchers, and it ignores and talks down to people who actually have face to face contact with patients or clients. It has been this way in psychology for a long time. Research is high value, and clinical interactions are an afterthought in psychology.
Another way to look at this is: 95% of people in psychology are engaged in clinical work, and the message they get from the APA is that they don't matter. Clinical psych doesn't really get a lot of respect in the professional organizations. This is why counseling and social workers separated from psychology decades ago.
Sent message.
Great video Dave.
Professor, if you read this, as a fellow teacher please don’t stop with 120 year old psychiatry. To start with Psychology as opposed to with the ideas of a medical physician, start with William James. Yes, all should know a bit of Freud since his terminology is used to this day. However, today’s psychology (not psychiatry) in the form of cognitive behavioral psychology and emotional intelligence is as far away from Freud as Galileo is from Ptolemy. You teach facts. If you mean to teach Psychology, please differentiate between the field as it is in the 21st century and the history of psychological ideas-for which we can go back to the Greeks. Summarizing CBT and explaining EI would be of enormous, immediate, pragmatic benefit to your viewers.
Keep up the good work!
I remember studying Freud back at Uni 30 years ago and how Freud's theories freaked everyone out, especially women. I still hold him in high regard, generally speaking in a round about way he was spot on. You simply cannot study psychology without studying Freud and that means a lot.
I remember hearing at a university lecture something to the effect that Freud was sometimes right for the right reasons, sometimes right for the wrong reasons and sometimes wrong for really interesting reasons.
What does this mean @attilathenun?
The lecturer was making the point that some of Freud's conclusions have been found to be on a firm foundation; others may indeed be correct but not for the reasons Freud advanced; and some are plain wrong but the reasoning which led to those wrong conclusions has been found to be interesting in itself.
Which specific conclusions fit which particular categories I can't say now. All this was a long time ago.
Before I even watched the video I can strongly recommend Sam O'Nella's educational video on Freud
Nice
I think Freud thought about sex more than me and that’s saying something.
If Sig went to a psychiatrist he would be diagnosed with a lot of things
What good scientist isn’t mad?
@@voiceunderthecovers ... a lot of things he invented, like his Oedipus Complex, envy, etc
@@RichardKoenigsberg he was pretty weird , probably had Penis Envy
You are a very good Professor and UA-camr. ❤
He's not a professor.
@@PBeringer🤓
Did Freud "come up" with the ideas of manifest content and latent content as hypotheses, and then investigated their existence, or did he...assume these were correct, and went on from there?
he just tried stuff and if it "worked" on some patients he assumed they were correct. He had the most random approaches, for example in a writing he just casually drops a line like: "so at this point I applied the head-pushing method, which i explained in another book, but basically im applying pressure on the patients head to trigger some response"
His ideas are derived from his early studies in biology, so they are not "made up" but rather inferred from relevant scientific literature at the time
@Professor Dave Explains Can you do a video of learning Japanese?
Another important and underexplained bit of Freudian history is his original "Seduction Hypothesis", which is basically the concept that all mental illness is because of repressed memories of CSA, prior to his development of the Psychosexual stages. Basically, he swung from believing everyone had been abused as children and were unaware of it, to a theory that all children fantasize about sexual activities with caregivers. It's a controversial and heavily argued area, but it gives some needed context.
Professor Dave‼️🔥‼️🔥‼️
Professor Dave, I came in this comment section to address you about the transgender issue with Mr. Matt Walsh. I would like to say that video was very elucidating to me, as I really wanted to hear someone like you talk about, specifically, the majority of talking points in that video. That also made me realize how important is to create and engage in debate (with science) with the group which dominates mass media and, therefore, the government. I am really thankful for your videos, as I am an older follower but have recently been targeted with your videos. And I am really enjoying them. Cheers from Brazil!
Was at a store selling cigars, and the tag line for one of the brands was "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar--this isn't." My guys, did you really not have a single person in the marketing department who knew that y'all are suggesting your cigars are a phallus?
ur recent debate analysis when?
He did one on Bridge the Divide's channel a few days ago.

Before I began my psychology degree, I read extensively about Freud’s theories. Alas, Freud wasn’t even mentioned. Behaviourism was said to be the essence of psychology. Of minor interest only.

Looks like I win this one, Dave.
part 2 when?
it's out
@@ProfessorDaveExplains
Ah ok.
Will you ever make a series focusing entirely on Freud himself or entirely on psychoanalysis?
If not, are there any syllabus or documentaries that you would recommend on that subject?
I wonder what crazy things I've said in my dreaming or sleeping
I’ m A-FREUD this video is spot-on!! 😅
Can we get a psychoanalysis of Tour? 😆
In the best interest of the channel, may I recommend you move this good comment to the correct video so it keeps this one on the subject of Siggy Fraud?
Thanks for your interest and contribution.
Freud was a genius. Saying his theories are nonsense is simply denying the unconscious.
Freud was, arguably, the most groundbreaking leader of their particular subject of ANY field. Without him we wouldn’t be anywhere near where we are in the field of psychology and psychiatry. I can’t think of another field where one person has had as much influence as Freud did on his related fields.
Yes, probably because you aren't scientifically literate.
@@dRoy8364 You just made me laugh out loud, thanks. In the broad field of Psychology how about the impact of Carl Jung or Donald Meichenbaum? The latter is hardly known to the public, but he and those like-minded from the 1970’s onward revolutionized modern clinical psychology and from there all clinical psychotherapy. Donald didn’t talk about sex but the mind . Guess that’s why he’s little known.
Carl Jung next!
In 1960 the did prove the super Ed go development of women. Most all psychoanalysisst agree with Freud. Freud never accepted the "Electra" complex theory. Thats from Jung.
In other words, king of overthinking, published..
But most of their theories are not very scientific.
Freud was certifiable.
Sigmund Freud was a nutty coke head. His drug habits were pretty amazing, and he wrote a lot about his medicinal use of cocaine and many of the other substances available in pharmacies in the 19th Century. It's absolutely fascinating reading. Not sure how it is in the States, but clinical psychologists in Australia are dangerously under qualified (as well as dangerously inaccessible). Many have an overtly prescriptive style of "therapy" that work for some, but sets most up for failure. Medical psychotherapy - so, an actual doctor - is a FAR more constructive approach. Divorcing mind and body is a BIG mistake, and clinical psychologists' ignorance of physiology makes them further inefficacious. But the big issue is access; the public healthcare system won't provide any more than ten sessions with a clinical psychologist and NONE with a psychiatrist or psychotherapist (though, they are subsidised), thus leaving assessment and prescribing in the hands of general practitioners, who obviously don't have any specialised training in psychiatry. It's pathetic. How does someone in the States access free mental health ca- ... whoops, ah, never mind.
Where did you hang the graphene gift from James Tour?
Sounds like his partiality towards stimulants is similar to academics today with caffeine. I'm sure if coke was readily available and not stigmatized similar to Freud's time, it would be just as popular so cant really hold that against him. The problem with the medical approach to treating psychological conditions is it relies too much on medicine as a remedy, which we are learning more and more can be detrimental to one's overall health in the long term. Its useful for treating symptoms, just like painkillers are useful for alleviating inflammation for example, but taking painkillers every day for years takes a toll on your body and inflammation can be alleviated holistically which is much better for the long term. The same goes for the majority of psychological conditions.
🙂👍
The Psychosexual part did seem rather weird...
Even from today's standards its weird.. imagine what people thought over 100 years ago when he first proposed these things
@@RichardKoenigsberg People are animals and animals have those instincts so of course its gonna exist, its what keeps our species alive. But Freud's theory of psychosexual development is patently absurd even psychologists don't take it seriously
I would bet Frueds weird and un scientific ideas came from his cocaine use. Hopefully you describe how his drug use impacted his ideas
@@RichardKoenigsberg Freud's cocaine use is well documented, although his admirers don't like to talk about it.
Is jungian theory science in psychology has an iota of truth? Say yes or no
Yes
ChatGPT ♥️🌹
Considering Jung was a follower of Freud, yes
Maternal Masculinity Complex
*This is a self-published theory based on the absurd theories of Freud’s Electra Complex and Oedipus Complex.*
Boys without father figures often don't experience the Oedipus complex. Instead, they tend to look up to the strongest figure in their life, which is usually their mother. As a result, they may develop aversion towards their own masculinity and experience negative emotions influenced by their mother, especially if she holds feminist beliefs. Consequently, they strive to adopt a false sense of masculinity modeled after their mother, rather than building a solid understanding of genuine masculinity. Since there isn't a strong male figure to fear and emulate, they try to become the female figure they admire, rather than learning from and feeling jealous of a father's gender traits.
Freud said that "The Irish Race was impervious to psychoanalysis." So I guess I am safe. Lol
but didnt Freuds grandson abuse a bunch of children?
Freud was a hack and the popularity of his "theories" is really unfortunate.
so if I'm understanding this correctly, Freud believed that girls desired their fathers, but realized they could never have them because they didn't have a penis, and then blamed their mother because they don't have a penis.
what the hell was this dude on?
cocaine
do the fathers in this world only like people with penises?

It's crazy how much of psychoanalysis and psychology in general has proven about 20 years later to be absolute nonsense. Phrenology, everything Freud did, lobotomies, somatotypes, repressed memories... the list goes on.
But I'm totally sure we've got it right this time, and our current psychological beliefs are definitely not just the ravings of a madman with an unhealthy obsession with kids.

Mental illness- you are not entirely right - psychosomatic illness is how psychoanalysis began.
This information is factual.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains No - Freud was influenced first by Charcoal - and then by Breuer, - & what was then diagnosed as hysteria. The first book - "Studies on Hysteria" 1895. Oh, so what. carry on with the series everything else is fine.
What are you unhappy with?
@@damedusa5107 Hysteria is the result of a psychological defence mechanism of conversion, - not a mental illness ( like schizophrenia or bipolar mood disorder) But, it is not a big deal ...
@@tonyburton419 me move on? You brought it up.
I think Freud was a fraud, wtf did I just watch? 😂
He wasn't a fraud, he was a pioneer. He just also had some really weird and wrong beliefs.
Freud attained his revolutionary "insights" by getting high as a kite on cocaine. That tells you how valuable his theories are.
@@RichardKoenigsberg Um, physics and psychology do not share the same level of empirical rigor, bud. Go ahead and make a case for debunked Freudian beliefs being the same as relativity. I could use a good laugh.

@@daikucoffee5316 so we're excluding how big the impact that spoken language has on people..?
@@djninjitsuchannel7857 What do you mean? Linguistics exists.
@Daiku Coffee actions and behaviours are determined by a lot of factors. There are some mechanisms that resemble every living being on our planet, such as the need to reproduce.
However, to state that those needs are the main ones we should focus on when it comes to behaviour, It is still an oversimplification.
There reasons to why, to become a clinical psychologist, you will need to study a 5 years course at a university. There is much more to it, and it is so fascinating! 😉👍
I had a great friend whose brother knew Freud = an internationally renowned psychoanalytic family, famous etc. At the same time [= 80's] I knew a psychiatric patient who put her baby on the living-room fire: she said Satan appeared and absolutely terrified her, but tell that to an atheist shrink and incarceration follows: hence, claiming post-natal depression, she was free to go after 6 weeks. Similarly, I was called to see an acquaintance who sat catatonic in his own excrement & whose wife explained that during an acid trip [= LSD25] Satan came thru' the wall and her husband shit himself in fear. Not long afterwards she set herself and her house on fire and perished. Having taken up Freud's poisoned chalice [= someone is required to do for the psychoses what he did for the neuroses], I suggest psychology graduates, trainee psychoanalysts etc obtain a grimoire and force a demon to appear. Alas, they might find demonry intensely active in psychotics and suffer the consequences, such as vicious hatred, palpable evil, unbelievable nastiness, serious violence etc that even £200 per hour won't compensate for. Have fun!
Frued was such a weirdo 🤣🤣 holy shit😭
