Psychodynamic Treatments For Abnormality
- Free
Association

encouraged to
express anything
that comes to his
mind

share, wihich may then, through
free association of ideas, lead to
other thoughts and memories
perhaps extending back to their
childhood

the material at all and in his
freewill way ego defences may
be lowered and repressed
material accessed.

intervene as specific times
or set the themes for
discussion that can be
analysed further during
the therapeutic process

material were
lifted and the
symbolic imagery
of dreams was a
reflection of this
unconcious
material

the contents of
dreams the
therapist might
be able to
identify
significant
conflicts
repressed into
the uncoincious

- Dreams have an
obvious content that
the client can recall.
This is referred to as

content lies the actual
meaning of the dream
that could only be
revealed through the
therapists interpretation.
This is referred to as the
latent content
- The dream work
was the process by
which the latent
content was
distorted into the
manifest content.
This can happen
through various
processes.
