title: [Pastoral psychology--Freud's forgotten child? The reception of psychoanalysis in pastoral care and counseling].
abstract: Psychoanalysis played a decisive role in the conception and early development of pastoral psychology and continues to exercise a formative influence on this practical theological discipline. This makes it all the more astonishing that psychoanalysis takes no notice of pastoral psychology. The author broadly sketches significant stages of the reception of psychoanalysis in pastoral care and counseling, highlighting in particular the historical importance of Oskar Pfister and, half a century later, Joachim Scharfenberg.
