Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: Why Do I Do What I Do?
Channel: Counselor Carl
Date: 2019-03-31

Counselor Carl (http://serenityonlinetherapy.com) explains the work of the great psychologist, Abraham Maslow, who conceptualized a hierarchy of needs that drives our motivation for doing what we do. Maslow proposed five needs that must be met in a specific order for us to become our True Selves, which he called, “self-actualization.” Counselor Carl observes that the vast majority of his clients suffer from anxiety and depression due to unmet needs from childhood that continue to fester and prevent them from becoming their True Selves. He then suggests that understanding where you fall on Maslow's hierarchy of needs can help you identify where you're stuck, so you can determine what needs must be met, so you can continue your journey to your True Self. Counselor Carl's straight-forward teaching style makes complex concepts easy to understand. Counselor Carl is a licensed, professional counselor with more than 20 years of clinical experience both online and face-to-face.
