Humanist/existential Therapy

Humanistic therapy, also known as humanistic psychology or humanistic-existential therapy, is a psychological approach that emphasizes an individual's inherent capacity for personal growth, self-actualization, and self-determination. Humanistic therapy emphasizes the importance of a client-centered and empathetic therapeutic relationship, which can help clients tap into their inner resources and develop a greater sense of self-awareness and self-acceptance. It can be particularly effective for individuals seeking personal growth, self-awareness, and improved self-esteem. However, it may not be the best approach for addressing severe mental health conditions that require more structured and directive interventions.
