A. free association, dream interpretation, transference, and interpreting the client's resistance to discussing painful memories.

Explanation:

They are the psychological theories and techniques which proposed that consciousness about the unconscious feeling, thoughts, and emotions can be used to treat people dealing with psychological disorder. This theory is based on the belief that human personality is influenced by unconscious thoughts.
