Which of the following therapy values emotional insight as the important benefit that the client derives from the treatment?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Psychodynamic therapy values emotional insight as the important benefit that the client derives from the treatment. Emotional insight is present when the client understands her/his conflicts intellectually; is able to accept the same emotionally; and is able to change her/his emotions towards the conflicts. The client’s symptoms and distresses reduce as a consequence of this emotional insight.
