Psychoanalysis is above all a practice or praxis. It is a clinical method of investigation of deep psychic processes based on the hypothesis of the unconscious. The objectives of Freudo-Lacanian psychoanalysis can be multiple. It is, for example, about reducing suffering and resolving psychological conflicts. But also to address the seemingly “unsolvable” character of a problem that appears in a repetition that may seem infinite; or to “simply” go onto the discovery of oneself… through speech.<\/p>\n
The practitioner will accompany the request and the desire of the person in movement – the analysand – through an active listening of his narrative, in particular by the analysis and the interpretation of the slips of the tongue, dreams and jokes, seats of the unconscious. For this, one fundamental rule, “free association” of words and ideas. The analysand’s total and unhindered freedom of expression.<\/p>\n
Lacanians and Freudians agree on a few essential concepts, such as the importance of childhood sexual fantasies and forgotten childhood events that form the structure of the unconscious and are at the origin of our adult neuroses. The “Ego” of the individual, this need to be able to affirm its existence with an “I” so essential to the expression of its individuality that it is as quickly forgotten (or unthought), is a kind of construction in necessary compromise, in the service of an encounter with “reality”. To express the pains of the present and to exhume the scars of the past, there is only one solution: to speak. Words resurrect images, awaken memories and, gradually, draw to consciousness the fantasies and scenes, past and present, that shape our destinies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
