Psychodynamics is believed to have strong association with Freudian psychoanalysis, Although modified by some, the key concepts still remain, Freud believed that human behavior was determined by the unconscious , biological and instinctual drives and placed a lot of the importance of the first six years of human development. He stated that in order to move on , a person had to confront what was going on in their unconscious. He was the pioneer of psychodynamic, and the fundamental notion was that individuals are the way they are due to the forces of the unconscious. This is further supported by Burnard who wrote:.

Its was from this very school of thought that emerged the person centered counseling developed by Carl Rogers. The aim of person centered counseling is the belief that the individual's capacity to work through their problems without directional work from the counselor. Corey also backed up and stated :.
