Karen Horney
Karen Horney (; ; 16 September 1885 – 4 December 1952) was a German
psychoanalyst who practiced in the United States during her later career. Her theories questioned some traditional
Freudian views. This was particularly true of her theories of sexuality and of the instinct orientation of psychoanalysis. She is credited with founding
feminist psychology in response to Freud's theory of
penis envy. She disagreed with Freud about inherent differences in the psychology of men and women, and like Adler, she traced such differences to society and culture rather than biology.
