The Psychoanalysis of Children

The Psychoanalysis of Children explores the unconscious thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of children to understand their emotional development and issues. It emphasizes the importance of early experiences, particularly in relationships with parents and caregivers. By analyzing a child's play, dreams, and verbal expressions, therapists can uncover underlying conflicts and traumas that may influence the child's behavior and emotional well-being. This approach aims to help children develop healthier coping mechanisms, improve their emotional resilience, and foster better relationships, ultimately contributing to their overall mental health and development.
