Josef Breuer
Josef Breuer was an Austrian physician and one of the pioneers of psychoanalysis, best known for his work on the treatment of hysteria and his collaboration with Sigmund Freud. He developed the 'talking cure' or cathartic method, which laid the groundwork for later psychotherapeutic techniques. Breuer's treatment of his patient Anna O. highlighted the importance of talking about traumatic experiences as a means of healing. His innovative approaches significantly influenced Freud's theories and the development of psychoanalytic practice.
