Absolutely on target - again. as you know I’ve for 22 years been teaching writing about one’s life (a smaller version of memoir) as a therapeutic modality and done so in an unashamedly group-therapy type way. I’m glad to hear the Freudians have finally noticed what the rest of us have been talking about for decades - and have been doing successfully for decades. Freud was a great thinker and theorists, but some of his disciples have been way too narrow in their outlook…. The Jungians have always known this, of course.

With a smile, Allan

In a talk he gave at a local bookstore, Dr. Peter Kramer posited that many forms of psychotherapy (such as Freudian, Jungian, etc.)are “…autobiographical.”

” Psychotherapy, then, is like some forms of memoir. Some one finds a way out and passes it on.”
