Bring attention to the conscious mind, free will, subjective experience, and self-reflection i. the brighter sides of human experience : carl rogers - first self-proclaimed humanistic theorist; considered people to be basically good and endowed with actualizing tendency. Actualizing tendency - ultimate state of being is actualized; humans come with a built-in process to move toward self-actualization (psychological growth) . at the same time, we are social creatures, so love is a basic need - approval, support and love - thus need positive regard: unconditional or. Conditional positive regard - lose touch of who we are as a result of trying to live up to other people"s standards.
