My theoretical orientation is Humanistic and Person-Centered theories. These are psychological approaches that emphasize the individual's inherent drive toward self-actualization, personal growth, and fulfillment. It focuses on the whole person, including thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and stresses the importance of free will, self-efficacy, and subjective experience.
