Viktor (10[1])Frankl named (10[1])a type of this (10[1])practice (10[1]-5[1])after the (10[1])prefix “logo-.” (10[4])Practitioners (10[3])of (10[1])this (10[1])discipline (10[3]-5[1])should display “unconditional (10[1])positive (10[2])regard” (10[6]-5[2])according (-5[1])to Carl (10[1])Rogers, (10[9]-5[2])who developed (10[3])a “client-centered” (10[2]-5[1])form (10[6])of this (10[3])practice. (10[17])A form of (10[1])this practice (10[3])based (-5[1])on (10[1])free (10[1]-5[1])association is less popular (10[2])than this practice’s (10[1])“cognitive (10[1])behavioral” (10[5]-5[1])form. (10[13])For 10 points, (10[3])name this (10[2])practice in which a (10[1])practitioner and a patient (10[1])talk through mental health (10[2])issues. (10[1])■END■ (10[10])
