	Brief account of Karen Horney « IKHS
		Born Karen Danielsen in a suburb of Hamburg, Horney studied medicine at the Universities of Freiburg, Göttingen, and Berlin.
		Horney's first two books proposed a model for the structure of neurosis in which adverse conditions in the environment as a whole, and especially in the family, create a "basic anxiety" against which the child defends itself by developing strategies of defense that are self-alienating, self-defeating, and in conflict with each other.
		Horney's focus on the present rather than the past has led some analysts to complain that her explanations lack depth, while others feel that it is the source of her originality and power.

	Karen Horney - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Karen Horney [horn-eye], née Danielsen (September 16, 1885, – December 4, 1952) was a German Freudian psychoanalyst of Norwegian and Dutch descent.
		Karen Horney was born Karen Danielsen on September 16, 1885 in Hamburg.
		Horney also reworked the Freudian Oedipal complex of the sexual elements, claiming that the clinging to one parent and jealousy of the other was simply the result of anxiety, caused by a disturbance in the parent-child relationship.

	KAREN HORNEY
		Born in Germany, the daughter of a Norwegian father who was a sea-captain and a Dutch mother, Horney's father was a morose and devoutly Protestant man given to long silences and bouts of Bible reading.
		At the heart of Horney's significant contribution to our understanding of humans is her efforts "...to explain neurotic phenomena NOT primarily in terms of the Oedipus complex but in terms of what she called basic anxiety" (Chessick, p.
		Horney "...outlines four main ways in our culture for escaping anxiety---to rationalize it, to deny it, to narcotize it, and to avoid thoughts, feelings, impulses and situations which might arouse it" (p.

		Horney says that Clare had a memoory of a scene in a novel which came to her when she was thinking about her own anger with her boyfriend.
		Horney goes on to say that she had resistance to the import of her associations because she was not ready to understand.
		Horney says the problem was not Clare's timidity in stating what she wanted but her need to hold on to the relationship 'to avoid becoming the object of even a vague resentment'.

	Publications « About Karen Horney
		Horney asserts a model of women with positive primary feminine qualities and self-valuation, against Freud's model of woman as defective and forever limited, and she ties her critique of both psychoanalytic theory and women's psychology to her recognition of a male-dominant society and culture.
		Horney did not abandon her derivation of neurosis from adverse conditions in childhood, as you suggest, though she did not see the recovery of childhood experience as the focus of therapy.
		Horney had a strong sense of the neurotic (including herself) as victim, but she also believed that blaming external factors won't get us anywhere (though it can help reduce self-hate) and that we have to accept the responsibility of working at ourselves if we are going to alleviate our difficulties.

	Horney, Karen Criticism and Essays
		Horney is best known as a trenchant critic of orthodox Freudian psychoanalysis and as a founding theorist of humanistic psychology.
		Horney argued that the underlying causes of neurosis and anxiety are the same for men and women, and thus corrected what she saw as Freud's overemphasis on instinctual drives and his "male bias" in regard to feminine psychology.
		Horney entered into private practice in 1919, which she continued—along with teaching at the Berlin Psychoanalytic Institute—until 1932, when the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party impelled her to emigrate to the United States.

		Horney’s paradigm for the structure of neurosis is one in which disturbances in human relationships generate a basic anxiety that leads to the development of strategies of defense that are not only self-defeating but in conflict with each other, since people adopt not just one but several of them.
		Horney saw that it was the male privilege more than the penis that women envied, and that greater opportunity to develop their human capacities was needed for both men and women.
		Horney suggests that there are three basic strategies people use to cope with basic anxiety: by moving toward people and adopting a self-effacing or compliant solution; moving against people and adopting an aggressive or expansive solution; and moving away from people and becoming detached and resigned.

	Welcome to Philos - Psychoanalysis Section
		Horney was not surprised by Freud's lack of motivators for therapy, becaue he never exprssed unambigously his view of these goals because for Freud, his desire followed the medical model - cure the neurosis.
		Horney discovered that her patients, who were suffering during the depression, were not suffering from the same concerns as Freud's sexually repressed Victorian clients, but in fact had other more pressing non sexual concerns.
		Horney's theory was intriguing in that it involved a neurosis that was inherited from the parents through malnurturing from the time of infanthood.

		Karen Horney was born September 16, 1885, to Clotilde and Berndt Wackels Danielson.
		Horney's answer, which she called the "basic evil," is parental indifference, a lack of warmth and affection in childhood.
		Horney noticed that, in contrast to our stereotypes of children as weak and passive, their first reaction to parental indifference is anger, a response she calls basic hostility.

	Karen Horney
		Horney is best known for her theory of neurosis, which she saw as much more continuous with normal life than previous theorists.
		Specifically, she saw neurosis as an attempt to make life bearable, as a way of "interpersonal control and coping." It might be argued that this is what we all try to do on a continuous basis, though only some of us are successful, whereas the neurotic are not.
		Horney described this stretching between the despised and ideal selves as "the tyranny of the shoulds" and neurotic "striving for glory:"

	Karen Horney 1885 – 1952
		Horney agreed with Freud, in principle, about the importance of the early years of childhood in shaping the adult personality.
		In a veiled allusion to Horney’s work, Freud wrote, “We shall not be very greatly surprised if a woman analyst, who has not been sufficiently convinced of the intensity of her own wish for a penis, also fails to attach proper importance to that factor in her patients.” (Freud, 1940).
		Horney was bitter about Freud’s failure to recognize the legitimacy of her views.

	Karen Horney in Personality Synopsis at ALLPSYCH Online
		Horney was never a student of Freud, but did study his work and eventually taught psychoanalysis at both the Berlin and New York Psychoanalytic Institute.
		In many ways, Horney was well ahead of her time and although she died before the feminist movement took hold, she was perhaps the theorist who changed the way psychology looked at gender differences.
		Horney argued that these people project their own hostilities (which she called externalization) onto others and therefore use this as a justification to 'get them before they get me.' Once again, relationships appear doomed from the beginning.

		For Horney, the object of therapy is to help patients relinquish their defenses, accept themselves as they are, and replace their search for glory with a striving for self-realization.
		Karen Horney (1986), Marcia Westkott explored the implications of Horney’s mature theory for feminine psychology, with chapters on the sexualization and devaluation of women and the dependency, anger, and detachment they feel as a consequence.
		She contended, with Horney, that being deprived is not ennobling but damaging and that the self-effacing qualities many women develop in order to cope with devaluation are destructive.

	Horney's Three Trends
		Karen Horney (1885-1952) is counted among the neo-psychoanalytic theorists who, along with Erik Erickson, Erich Fromm and others, complemented the traditional psychoanalytic biological orientation with an emphasis on culture and interpersonal relationships.
		Horney thought that basic anxiety brought about by insecurities in childhood were more fundamental in character development than conflicts between instincts and society or intrapsychic conflicts among the id, ego, and superego.
		For Chou, Horney’s surface triad "does not describe the end goals of each type, but rather the tactics used to reach the end goals." The deep triad operates over a longer time frame and these deeper desires are more hidden in the subconscious.

	PTypes - Karen Horney and Character Disorder
		"Karen Horney's (1950) theory of neurosis, really character disorders, recognizes the influence of culture while viewing neurosis as a constellation of defenses designed to deal with basic anxiety.
		Neurosis for Horney is essentially a character disorder, a way of life in which the patient is compulsively driven by conflicting "shoulds," claims, idealized images, alienation from the self and implicit and/or explicit self-hate" (pg.
		The consequences flowing from the idealized self are either a conviction of arrogance and omnipotence or a despised, self-hating self.
