something wrong with me, I am bad person , the guilt or emotions become more unstable and the feelings of inadequacy are exacerbated , and the need to change can be a over whelming mental ordeal.

Humanistic therapy is diametrically opposed to that of CBT and originates from a radically different philosophy. The Humanistic model asserts that we are essentially functional organisms and that our defensive inborn processes actually represent a healthy self protective choice given that the early environment we experienced, have the potential to surface as negative influences in latter life. The Humanistic therapist will seek to engage with the individual's frame of reference, including their deeply rooted affected mentality; the purpose of this is to facilitate the individual's forward move into a place of self actualised autonomy. Humanistic therapy is a collaborative journey, where the individual is the expert of their own experience, and the Humanistic therapist is the provider of the theory. There is no supporting scientific evidence, nor measure that can be used to assess the Humanistic approach
