Freud and Little Hans

As everybody knows, this is certainly an amazing case study by Sigmund Freud. He studid a 5-year-old child name Hans. Interesting enough, Freud never met his young patient. The communication was carried out by letters and the child's parents. After having a glimpse of what this case study is about, I somehow feel that it was the kid that cure himself afterall, while Freud was just studying the information and interpreting the ideas. I don't feel like Freud had done anything to cure little Hans from the fear of horses, instead, I think that as Hans grow up, the strange feelings start to untangle themselves. Am I wrong?
