beautiful cogent defense for the necessary practice of alternative "non-scientific" psychotherapies....not every experience can be explained

Nothing to defend

[@naughtyskywalker9292]

With due respect; the greatest failure of Freudian/ Jungian Unconscious and Depth Psychology - It does not offer a solution. It cannot be proven. It doesnt present a methodology, let alone an intervention. If our personality was forged by early childhood experiences which we cannot control, how can we self-improve. How can we change something we cannot see. And dont say, hypnotherapy or Projective tests.

That being said: I accept and respect the philosophy of the unconscious. Freudian psychologists need to derive a Psychotherapy technique that is both empirically reliable and replicable. *_The iceberg._*

So are you saying Hypnotherapy isn’t proven to be effectively concrete ?

[@naughtyskywalker9292]

@@OmarCapital No its still classified as pseudo-science and contemporary psychotherapy. An individual with high internal locus will show resistance and will not get hypnotized.

@@naughtyskywalker9292 I Totally Understand Where You’re Coming From & Even Though I Respect Your Opinion I Would Have To Say That People Are Already In Trance So A Skillful Hypnotherapist Would Help Someone See & Understand That & Then Be The Conduit That Facilitates Change Work By Using A Predictable Framework
