Freud was more right than you think | The Gray Area

Sigmund Freud is probably the most famous psychoanalyst. Yet many of his theories have been critiqued or discredited. So is there anything we can still learn from the father of psychoanalysis? Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO In today’s episode Sean speaks with professor Mark Solms, author of The Only Cure: Freud and the Neuroscience of Mental Healing. Mark argues that while Freud may have been wrong about many things, he was right about one important thing: the human mind cannot be fully understood on purely biological terms. He believes that modern psychiatry has become focused on treating mental suffering like a chemical problem, instead of focusing on emotional and psychological aspects. Sean and Mark discuss the conscious versus the unconscious mind, whether psychoanalysis is the best therapy, and why Freud is still relevant today. 00:00 Intro 03:14 Was Freud a scientist? 09:23 The conscious vs the unconscious mind 16:35 The limits of science 27:34 Is psychoanalysis still the best therapy? 38:28 Why it’s so hard to change our behaviour 46:22 The human element in therapy Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling) Guest: Mark Solms, neuropsychologist, psychoanalyst, and professor at the University of Cape Town.
