Description

Since working as a psychotherapist, I have found that the clients who have best been able to handle life, have been the humorous ones. I wrote about this for my M.A. at Regent's Colege. I assess anxiety from an existential position that looks at how man relates to his setting, as well as how society's cultural values affect it. Humour is addressed existentially in the light of the anxiety of the characters in Beckett's 'Waiting for Godot'. Anxiety in a psychoanalytic way is seen in terms of human development, in the context of Superego/Ego relations. The child's relationship to his mother is assessed regarding how her being humorous may affect this psychic-agent alliance. This piece analyses how humour affects anxiety in case studies by Spinelli, Yalom and Freud. How my own humour affected a client's anxiety is also considered. This is a clinically useful and original work that will appeal to psychotherapists and counsellors, as it looks at a subject largely neglected in psychotherapy : how humour can enhance working with the constant factor of anxiety in therapy.
