O que é a Psicanálise Humanista

The goal of Fromm's psychotherapy was to work toward satisfaction of the basic human needs
of relatedness, transcendence, rootedness, a sense of identity, and a frame of orientation. The
therapist tries to accomplish this through shared communication in which the therapist is
simply a human being rather than a scientist.

The object of therapy for Horney is to help people relinquish their defenses -- which
alienate them from their true likes and dislikes, hopes, fears, and desires -- so that they
can get in touch with what she called the "real self." Because of her emphasis on self-
realization as the source of healthy values and the goal of life, Horney is one of the
founders of humanistic psychology.

IV. Human Needs

Our human dilemma cannot be solved by satisfying our animal needs. It can only be
addressed by fulfilling our uniquely human needs, an accomplishment that moves us
toward a reunion with the natural world. Fromm identified five of these distinctively
human or existential needs.

A. Relatedness

First is relatedness, which can take the form of (1) submission, (2) power, or (3) love.
Love, or the ability to unite with another while retaining one's own individuality and
integrity, is the only relatedness need that can solve our basic human dilemma.

B. Transcendence

Being thrown into the world without their consent, humans have to transcend their
nature by destroying or creating people or things. Humans can destroy through
malignant aggression, or killing for reasons other than survival, but they can also
create and care about their creations.

C. Rootedness
Rootedness is the need to establish roots and to feel at home again in the world.
Productively, rootedness enables us to grow beyond the security of our mother and
establish ties with the outside world. With the nonproductive strategy, we become
fixated and afraid to move beyond the security and safety of our mother or a mother
substitute.

D. Sense of Identity

The fourth human need is for a sense of identity, or an awareness of ourselves as a

separate person. The drive for a sense of identity is expressed nonproductively as
conformity to a group and productively as individuality.

E. Frame of Orientation

By frame of orientation, Fromm meant a road map or consistent philosophy by which

we find our way through the world. This need is expressed nonproductively as a striving
for irrational goals and productively as movement toward rational goals.

the capacity to relate to others and to oneself with loving, affirming attitudes, and the
capacity for reason; or whether these capacities were stifled by social, cultural, and
economic conditions.

a “humanistic conscience”— the internalization of loving, self-affirming values that

support autonomy and the need to express these faculties toward others and toward
theworld.

Overview of Humanistic Psychoanalysis

Last Updated on Thu, 24 Nov 2016 | Personality

Erich Fromm's basic thesis is that modern-day people have been torn away from then
prehistoric union with nature and also with one another, yet they have the power of
reasoning, foresight, and imagination. This combination of lack of animal instincts and
presence of rational thought makes humans the freaks of the universe. Self-awareness
contributes to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and homelessness. To escape from these
feelings, people strive to become reunited with nature and with then fellow human
beings.

Trained in Freudian psychoanalysis and influenced by Karl Marx, Karen Hor-ney, and
other socially oriented theorists, Fromm developed a theory of personality that
emphasizes the influence of sociobiological factors, history, economics, and class
structure. His humanistic psychoanalysis assumes that humanity's separation from the
natural world has produced feelings of loneliness and isolation, a condition called basic
anxiety.
Fromm was more than a personality theorist. He was a social critic, psychotherapist,
philosopher, biblical scholar, cultural anthropologist, and psychobiographer. His
humanistic psychoanalysis looks at people from a historical and cultural perspective
rather than a strictly psychological one. It is less concerned with the individual and
more concerned with those characteristics common to a culture.

186 Part II Psychodynamic Theories

Fromm takes an evolutionary view of humanity. When humans emerged as a separate

species in animal evolution, they lost most of their animal instincts but gained "an
increase in brain development that permitted self-awareness, imagination, planning, and
doubt" (Fromm, 1992, p. 5). This combination of weak instincts and a highly developed
brain makes humans distinct from all other animals.

A more recent event in human history has been the rise of capitalism, which on one
hand has contributed to the growth of leisure time and personal freedom, but on the
other hand it lias resulted hi feelings of anxiety, isolation, and powerlessness. The cost
of freedom, Fromm maintained, has exceeded its benefits. The isolation wrought by
capitalism has been unbearable, leaving people with two alternatives: (1) to escape from
freedom into interpersonal dependencies, or (2) to move to self-realization through
productive love and work.
