The American Psychoanalyst (TAP) has been published by the American Psychoanalytic Association for over 50 years. In 2023, it underwent a makeover and a rebirth, much like psychoanalysis itself has done in the last decades. The field of psychoanalysis, founded by Sigmund Freud, started a revolution in psychology by introducing talk therapy and the notion of unconscious thoughts and feelings. The 21st century has witnessed an explosion of new evidence in support of 20th-century psychoanalytic ideas like defense mechanisms and the lasting influence of childhood attachments. The New York Times has called it a “Freudaissance”: people are returning to psychoanalytic thinking to explain the crazy behavior they see all around them and to understand themselves and seek out change. To meet and expand upon this rebirth of interest in the science of feelings and consciousness, TAP offers a psychoanalytic perspective on current events in psychology, the arts, and culture for mental health professionals, students, and the general public. TAP’s bold, human-interest stories contribute a powerful psychoanalytic voice to the national conversation around mental health.
