Networks of My Theory in Psychological Approach

1. Humanistic Approach
• The humanistic perspective emphasizes an individual's inherent worth, the centrality of human values, and the creative, active character of humans. The approach is upbeat and emphasizes the human power to overcome adversity, pain, and despair.
• The humanistic phrase for exercising free will is personal agency. Personal agency refers to the decisions we make in life, as well as the courses we choose and the repercussions of those decisions.
• Self-actualization concerns psychological growth, fulfillment and satisfaction in life.
Both Rogers and Maslow regarded personal growth and fulfillment in life as a basic human motive. This means that each person, in different ways, seeks to grow psychologically and continuously enhance themselves.
• Levels of awareness: (1) those that are symbolized below the threshold of awareness and are ignored,(2) those that are distorted or reshaped to fit it into an existing self-concept, (3) those that are consistent with the self-concept and thus are accurately symbolized and freely admitted to the self-structure.

2. Analytical Approach
• The self is portrayed by a person's concepts of perfection, completion, and wholeness, but the mandala, which can be depicted as a circle within a square, a square within a circle, or any other concentric shape, is the ultimate symbol.
• This approach exercise free will through deciding whether to accept other archetypes and confront the unconscious or to have two faces and didn't acknowledge shadow it will blocked individuals to attain self realization
• The process of becoming an independent or entire person is known as psychological rebirth, also known as self-realization or individuation. Individuation entails becoming an individual, realizing one's potential, and growing as a person. Individualization is a natural and unavoidable process, yet it can be aided or hampered by external factors.
• Levels of Psyche: personal unconscious - contains repressed infantile memories and impulses,forgotten events, and experiences originally perceivedbelow the threshold of ourconsciousness, unconscious - active and influence person's thought, emotions and actions, conscious - sense by the ego, collective.

Remembering the good old days when I was appointed to the faculty of Ohio State University, where I began to realize that I have developed a distinctive point of view about psychotherapy which I presented in Counseling and psychotherapy!

As I take a sip of my coffee after the group session with my clients, I caught myself wondering about what my life would have been if I pursued my childhood dream (to become a farmer). I believe it is my enhancement needs– to develop and achieve growth to be self-actualized –that brought me to this path.
