Anne Freud

Anne Freud was a British psychoanalyst and the daughter of Sigmund Freud. She contributed significantly to child development and psychoanalysis by exploring how early experiences influence a child's emotional growth and mental health. Anne emphasized the importance of understanding children's inner worlds and used therapeutic techniques to help them work through emotional difficulties. Her work helped bridge psychoanalytic theory with practical approaches to child psychiatry and psychotherapy, making mental health support more accessible and tailored to young individuals.
