Good points.
The issue of psychic determinism is an interesting one.
Something else that is interesting to me is that the psychoanalytic model seems to say there is potential for a redemption of sorts from psychic determinism through the use of verbal/intellectual exploration and understanding. My own sense is that such understanding does help to free people from their problems to a certain extent, but that often it is not sufficient to create real change.

Say more. I am not sure I understand what you mean.
