Biography of Harry Stack Sullivan

He was a modern psychoanalyst and believed that psychic disorders could be traced back to families who did not know how to relate to their children, who consequently did not feel accepted and loved. As a psychotherapist, he tried to improve a patient's interpersonal skill and guide his personality development during interactions with other people.
