(A) Logotherapy — this matches (II) Victor Frankl. Frankl, a psychiatrist and neurologist, propounded logotherapy, ‘treatment for the soul’, which helps the client find meaning in life even in suffering. It is an existential therapy.
(B) Client Centred Therapy — this matches (IV) Carl Rogers. Rogers brought the concept of self, with freedom and choice at its core, into psychotherapy; the therapist provides a warm, accepting relationship.
(C) Gestalt Therapy — this matches (I) Freiderick Perls and Laura Perls. Freiderick (Fritz) Perls gave this therapy together with his wife Laura Perls; it aims to increase an individual’s self-awareness and self-acceptance (gestalt means ‘whole’).
(D) Rational Emotive Therapy — this matches (III) Albert Ellis. Ellis formulated RET, whose central thesis is that irrational beliefs mediate between antecedent events and their consequences; the first step is the ABC analysis.
