This approach has evolved from early work based on Freudian psychology.
It explores how we are influenced by sub-conscious thought processes and often involves exploring how childhood experiences have affected our thinking and behaviour.

This is a wide term covering a number of different approaches to therapy including Person-Centred, Gestalt, Transactional analysis, and Existential approaches.
