Catharsis, was a therapeutical technique from Sigmund Freud in which a person is asked to speak everything he feels and thinks without filter to the therapist. It is effective in the sense that a person will be able to tell everything he wants to, this give him a feeling of “relief” since this thoughts and feelings bothers him so much.
