Why Analytic Psychocatharsis
Why 'Analytic Psychocatharsis? The Greek word 'kathairo' (καθαiρο) means as much as: to wash clean, or cleanse. An important effect results from applying it to (a new) psychotherapy in that it develops a directly noticeable liberation, or cleansing, something that is a slightly affective experience (such as Moksha, or Samadhi in yoga). Another aspect is the psychoanalytic cognizance that is included, something more intellectual. Thus, the adjective ‘Analytic’. Analytic Psychocatharsis does not deal with the usual treatises which e. g. explain depressions by wrongly developed feelings, give a couple of warm-hearted advices and recommend a positive thinking. It is not a booklet in the form of a simple adviser. Also other representations of more ambitious but so-called 'alternative' psychotherapeutic methods disassociate themselves from this text here. Because such a reading often has the disadvantage, that it is indeed simple and clear like different descriptions of meditation, conversation and diversion therapies but does not show sufficing scientific grounds
