Isaac is a bright student but he procrastinates. He puts off writing term papers and gets incomplete grades which eventually become F's. Issac's ________ therapist assumes that Issac's procrastination masks his low self-regard, and that he is out of touch with his real feelings.

Fill the blank with either:

A) Psychodynamic
B) Behavior
C) Cognitive
D) Humanist

Many thanks

The humanist approach in psychology defies the basic assumptions of both the psychodynamic and the behavior perspectives. It views the patient as a whole and is interested in the study of the self and the development of a stronger sense of self-fullfilment and agency. It is more interested in the patient's subjective experience, what he thinks and feels and it focuses in the present. Isaac's therapist opinion is consistent with the humanist approach; he is exploring his feelings of low self-regard and will try to change them by changing the opinion that Isaac has of himself.
