Counseling theories are distinguished by several key concepts, each overlapping with the others.
1. View of Human Nature refers to the distinguishing characteristics, including ways of thinking, feeling and acting that humans tend to have naturally, i.e. independently of the influence of culture.
2. Theory of the Healthy Personality: Each theory defines and clarifies the personality in terms of what a healthy person is, what makes us whole, integrated, and develop as a coherent self.
3. Theory of Conflict (Dysfunction): Each theory describes how it is that the healthy person becomes conflicted, including what the conflict involves, in terms that are consistent with the theory of personality.
4. Theory of Counseling (Central Constructs of the Counseling Process): Each theory explains how counseling helps restore the conflicted person to the state of the healthy (or integrated, or cohesive) person, including the nature of the counseling relationship and the dynamics that go on in it between the counselor and the client.
