Humanistic psychology

Explanation:

Humanistic psychology believes and focuses on the human as a distinct individual and they believe people should be treated as distinct individuals by psychologist.

Humanistic psychologists hold a belief that psychologist that focuses on human behaviour are more consumed with just scientific aspect of their study and their neglect the actual person as a human being who has thoughts and feelings.

They time is used to establish ways in which certain behaviours can be regulated.

Humanists look and evaluate psychological influence that might have led to a certain behaviour rather than focusing on the actual behaviour.

The humanistic psychology is more concerned with a person's well being in terms of love in their life, satisfaction and their self concept.
