Id, Ego and Superego in Psychoanalytic Counseling Theory Freud's theory of personality (1923) saw the human psyche (personality) as having more than one aspect. The soul is structured into three parts (tripartite), namely: Id, Ego and Superego, all of which develop at different stages in our lives. This is a system, not a brain, or a physical one. #id #ego #superego #psychoanalyticcounselingtheory #freudstheoryofpersonality #humanpsyche #threeparts #differentstagesinlives #psychologytoday
