A new generation for Freud (therapy, complex, parent, father)

Interesting trend - if it's really a trend.


Not Your Daddy’s Freud
A new generation of analysts and patients is embracing the father of psychoanalysis – in magazines and memes and many hours on the couch.
Ms. Akhtiorskaya is part of a new cohort of people from creative backgrounds embarking on psychoanalytic training, a career change that would have been unthinkable in the heyday of the practice.

Is Ms. Akhiorskaya also embracing Freud's blaming of child victims for their own sexual abuse by parents or older relatives? Has she revived and embraced the Oedipus Complex theory?

There is a movement back toward psychotherapy, but not Freudian psychotherapy, at least among psychiatrists. Psychiatrists know better than to go back to that kind of sexism and victim-blaming.
