He's the most famous psychologist, but a lot of his theories can be confusing. This resource is meant to teach your students about Freud! His theory of the unconscious mind, free association, dream interpretation, psychoanalysis and psychodynamic theory, this lesson also explores some of the controversy with Freud's theories about the Oedipus complex and the psychosexual stages.

*if you would like to edit those out for more sensitive audiences, don't use the last 4 slides in the presentation.

This resource includes:

A .pdf and .pptx presentation on Freud and some of his theories
Guided Notes (and a key) that students can fill out during the presentation

I do not reference defense mechanisms in this lesson, I have a separate lesson for that topic here if you're interested!

If you enjoy this resource, I'd really appreciate a review :)
