    Area of Science:

    • Psychoanalytic theory and practice
    • Psychology
    • Psychotherapy

    Background:

    • Recent psychoanalytic thinking appears humanistic.
    • This trend may represent a culmination of a long-standing holistic movement in psychoanalysis.
    • The holistic approach has historical roots dating back to early psychoanalytic developments post-Freud.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the nature of recent humanistic trends in psychoanalytic thought.
    • To explore the relationship between these trends and the broader holistic movement in psychoanalysis.
    • To identify the theoretical difficulties and contributions of this holistic perspective.

    Main Methods:

    • Theoretical analysis of psychoanalytic literature.
    • Historical review of psychoanalytic movements.
    • Conceptual examination of holistic and partializing theories.

    Main Results:

    • Recent humanistic trends in psychoanalysis are interpreted as the evolution of a holistic movement.
    • The holistic theory presents inherent difficulties and relies on partializing parent theory.
    • Key contributions include recognizing meaning as constructed and emphasizing the analyst's attitudes.

    Conclusions:

    • The recent humanistic trend in psychoanalysis is best understood as a manifestation of a holistic movement.
    • Despite theoretical challenges, the holistic approach offers valuable insights into meaning-making and the therapeutic relationship.
    • Further integration with existing theories is needed to address its inherent difficulties.
