Quotes:

“Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.“

Dr Carl Jung

“Psychotherapy is in essence a cure through love“

Dr Sigmund Freud

“The aim of psychoanalysis is to relieve people of their neurotic misery so that they can be normally unhappy”

Dr Sigmund Freud

“I do not like to work with patients who are in love. Perhaps it is because of envy – I, too, crave enchantment – or maybe it is because love and psychotherapy are fundamentally incompatible. The good therapist fights darkness and seeks illumination, while romantic love is sustained by mystery and crumbles upon inspection.“

Dr Irvin Yalom
