Description
Description: In this candid conversation hour, Bettelheim responds directly to questions about autism, schizophrenia, supervision, religion, psychoanalysis, Jung, trauma, and the Holocaust. Moving easily between anecdote and philosophy, he reflects on survival, the limits of science, the place of soul in psychotherapy, and the human need to understand rather than judge. The exchange offers an unfiltered look at his clinical values, intellectual commitments, and deeply human approach to suffering.
Educational Objectives:

Bruno Bettelheim (August 28, 1903 – March 13, 1990) was an Austrian-born self-educated psychoanalyst who spent the bulk of his academic career from 1944 to 1973, as a professor of psychology at the University of Chicago and director of the Orthogenic School for Disturbed Children.[2][3]
He is perhaps best known for his essay The Uses of Enchantment (1976), which applied Freudian psychology to fairy tales and won the 1976 National Book Critics Circle Award for Criticism and the 1977 National Book Award in category Contemporary Thought.[4][5]Bettelheim wrote a number of articles and books on psychology for more than 40 years and had an international reputation on such topics as Sigmund Freud and emotionally disturbed children.
