Freud's daughter Anna Freud was also a distinguished psychologist, particularly in the fields of child and developmental psychology.
Freud's lessening influence in psychiatry is thus largely due to the repudiation of his theories and the adoption of many of the basic scientific principles of Freud's principal opponent in the field of psychiatry, Emil Kraepelin.
Freud's notion that the child's relationship to the parent is responsible for everything from psychiatric diseases to criminal behavior has also been thoroughly discredited and the influence of such theories is today regarded as a relic of a permissive age in which "blame-the-parent" was the accepted dogma.

 Sigmund Freud - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
According to some of his successors, including his daughter Anna Freud, the goal of therapy is to allow the patient to develop a stronger ego; according to others, notably Jacques Lacan, the goal of therapy is to lead the analysand to a full acknowledgement of his or her inability to satisfy the most basic desires.
When Freud spoke of religion as an illusion, he maintained that it is fantastic structure from which a man must be set free if he is to grow to maturity; and in his treatment of the unconscious he moved toward atheism.
Freud's model of the mind is often seen as a critical challenge to the enlightenment model of rational agency, which was a key element of much modern philosophy.

 Freud
The main problem with folks, says Freud, is that their desires as a young child were not appropriately repressed and rechanneled into the "normal" desires we expect from adults.
Freud lays out a tricky path for the small child to follow to correctly repress and rechannel early desire, and it is no wonder that most folks don't get it right (or at least Freud thinks they don't).
In the second lecture, Freud unpacks the concept of repression, and traces it from its original wish, through the repression of the wish, and finally to the wish's rediscovery and release though therapy.

 Sigmund Freud -- Philosophy Books and Online Resources
Freud was big on hypnosis, but it eventually took a second seat to another of his ideas, that of "free association." Freud placed much emphasis on infantile sexuality and emphasized that many of our problems in later life come from our relationships with our parents, the so-called Oedipus complex.
2 The symptoms of neurosis, according to Freud, "are essentially substitute gratifications for unfulfilled sexual wishes." From Freud's teachings sprang a whole industry; which has milked, and continues to milk, most all of western society; as a sizable portion of the population goes about psychoanalyzing their fellows.
Freud's work effected a profound revolution in man's attitude towards, and comprehension of, his mental processes, constituting after Copernicus and Darwin, a third blow to man's self-esteem.

Put yourself in Freud's place by easing into a replica of the psychoanalyst's armchair – a curiously narrow-backed design which was specially built for him – and studying the Greek, Roman, Oriental and Egyptian antiquities he collected on his writing desk.
Although Freud didn't write systematically about his collection, there are lots of scattered references in his letters and writings, with archaeology a recurring analogy for psychoanalysis.
Freud also used Egyptian antiquities in which an animal and a human are fused together to describe the way two images can be condensed together in dreams.

 Protest Freud Museum's Anti-Israel Website
It is certainly legitimate to examine Freud's writings to explore his own Jewish identity, to theorize about religious behavior, and attempt to understand his opinions about the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine.
It is unconscionable, however, to use The Freud Museum's website and to use Freud's words, ripped from historical context, to ridicule, derogate and slander Israel.
The posting of such blatantly partisan political opinions on its official website constitutes a failure and abuse of its educational mission and does a disservice both to the scholarly community and to the public that trustingly turns to The Freud Museum for what is believed to be impartial scholarship.
