Object Relations: Helene Deutsch Pt. 1

Blog: https://psychreviews.org/helene-deutsch/

Helene Deutsch was one of the early women who absorbed Freud's ideas and added some of her own. More of an acolyte than some later commentators, she deeply understood the way masculine and feminine roles have a fundamental connection to self-esteem and confidence. Taking a balanced view, she allowed for people to find other options than just instinctual satisfaction.
