Positive and Transcultural Psychotherapy of Nossrat Peseschkian is an integrative, psychodynamic method that encompasses humanistic, systemic, and CBT elements. PPT is a cultural-sensitive, trauma-informed, holistic method offering a variety of diverse innovative tools and techniques to choose from, for a completely individualized experience in therapy. PPT is a humanistic, psychodynamic approach based on a positive conception of human nature. Within this framework, the PPT therapist sees the positum of clients, meaning they are not identified with the problem they bring to the therapeutic environment but without ignoring the latter the therapist will rather see the individuals as a whole, carrying innate resources and strengths that can help towards discovering and handling the inner conflicts and leading to self-healing.
