Humanistic Psychoanalysis

  • Self-awareness leads to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and homelessness.
  • People try to overcome these feelings by connecting with others and nature.
  • Uniquely human needs (relatedness, transcendence, rootedness, identity, and orientation) encourage people to unify with nature.
  • Relatedness is the need to connect with others through submission, power, or love.
  • Transcendence means rising above passive existence to create or destroy.
  • Rootedness is the need for structure in life.
  • Identity creates a sense of self.
  • Orientation provides a framework for understanding the world.
  • Basic anxiety is a feeling of isolation in the world.
  • People use mechanisms like conformity, authoritarianism, and destructiveness to alleviate anxiety.
