This article explores Davanloo's idea of substituting Freud's psychoanalysis with his own method for its assumed superiority in achieving therapeutic aims and uncovering the unconscious materials through which he believed to be able to construct the metapsychology of the unconscious objectively. For this aim, we explore Davanloo's ideas and case studies as the original observations at the background of his conclusions in his writings. We also discuss, illustrated with case presentations, the clinical assumptions, which appear to be beyond the scope of Davanloo's method. As the result, this article concludes that Davanloo's technique appears to be only a tactical intervention for reconstructing some parts of the unconscious and there is a systematic bias in his method.
