Verifying the work I have done over many years in the areas of psychology and philosophy, the Open University today confirmed my award of a BA (Hons) Philosophy and Psychology.
This award is useful to my work since before the psychologist Wundt, philosophy was the area of science that dealt with the mind. Study in philosophy and psychology therefore enables the graduate to have studied far deeper than those who have merely studied modern psychology.
Psychology in it’s various names has after all dated back to 4500 BCE in china and to Alexander the Great in the west.
Philosophy and in particular Socratic counselling, influences my work and my style, providing psychotherapy, psychoanalysis and hypnoanalysis in Edinburgh and Falkirk.
