Humanistic therapy works to boost the client's self-fulfillment by helping them grow in self-awareness and self-acceptance.
Just being honest and yourself. We all look at the world differently and that approach is what it’s all about

Hello Madam,

It is not the goal of a particular modality that you need to focus on. My suggestion is that you need to explore what is it that you would like to accomplish when seeking therapy? Your goals are the ones that matter. You can search different modalities and find out which one you would be comfortable with and find a therapist that provides it. So then it is a win-win situation.
Take care and be safe.

Humanistic therapy is individual centered, Unconditionally supportive and often perceived as very rewarding by individuals. The humanistic approach focuses on self-fulfillment and personal ideals, The client is considered to be the therapists equal. The therapist does not claim to be an expert on the unique presentation of each individual. Therapy is a joint endeavor to create change. Often, it is combined with other therapeutic approaches.
The question is better asked, "What are the treatment methods of Humanistic Therapy?" That's because you bring the goals, we bring the techniques. I'm not very sure what is said to be the treatment goals of humanistic therapy, but I recall they are pretty much about being empathetic and modeling how kindness begets kindness. It's not my orientation, so I'm not qualified to answer.
