I have been trained as a clinician, and teach Personality, Principles of Counseling and History & Systems (among other courses). In my experience Freud has never been much more than a marginal figure within American academic psychology - and barely more than that within most currents of American clinical psychology. You are writing from California and are probably much younger than I am.  I went to school in NYC, which was heavily psychodynamic if not entirely Freudian.  Things have changed, but when I went to graduate school, most psychotherapists and all clinical psych doctoral programs in the New York area were Freudian, neo-Freudian or psychodynamic.  I received my PhD in Washingon, DC in developmental and had extensive post-doc training in clinical, so was able to get extensive training in cognitive behavior therapy, but even as recently as 15 years ago, only one school in the NY area had a graduate program that was cognitive and/or behavioral in its core orientation. So Freud was far from a marginal figure.   Riki Koenigsberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
