Systemic psychotherapy sees the person from its whole perspective, biological, psychological and social and underlines the significance of the human factor, while establishing it as an active member of the human systems. The painful traumas of the past are examined, as well as the defence mechanisms of the self. The understanding of the unconcious processes and of the intra-psychic conflict is seen as indispensable, in order to release the concious decisions that will give purpose and meaning to one’s life.
