Message from Congress Chair
Toshinori Hanai, M.A.
People live by getting what they want in reality and fulfilling themselves. The reality in which we live doesn’t always work the way we want it to, and in fact most of the time it makes it difficult to get what we want. “Will” is what makes it possible to overcome difficulties and obtain what we want. Will in dynamic psychology is the ego function that decides a goal of need gratification, puts one’s own energy together, gives it a vector and maintains it toward its achievement, and guides themselves for action using various resources within the self. The “Will” is the theme of 27th annual congress of International Association of Dynamic Psychotherapy (IADP).
