Further Explanation:

Humanistic psychology arose in the mid-20th century as an answer to the limitation of Sigmund Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis and behaviorism of BF Skinner. The approach focused on the individual's inherent drive towards self-actualization. It is a process of realizing one's capabilities and creativity. This makes people believe that all are good. It adopted a holistic approach and pays more attention to creativity, free will, human potential. It views the person as a whole rather than the sum of parts. It also encourages self-exploration. The spiritual aspiration is an integral part of the psyche. It emerged on trans personal psychology. This therapy encourages self-awareness and thoughtful excellence. The humanistic theory is described as a crucial opportunity to change the troubled life back to a healthy path. The freedom of choice is maximized. In the 20th century, it is referred the "third force". The earliest work was of Carl Rogers who was influenced by Otto Rank. Carl Rogers coined the term “actualizing tendency”. The other sources of influence are existentialism and phenomenology.
