Welcome to MindScope Psychology! In this video, Zohaib Ali (MS Psychology, APA member & grad student) compares humanistic psychology and existential psychology — two influential approaches to understanding the human mind. ▶️ What you’ll learn: • Why humanistic psychology emphasizes growth, potential, and affirmation • How existential psychology addresses limits, anxiety, and radical freedom • The core differences: optimism vs confronting life’s restrictions • Why both perspectives matter in therapy, counseling, and psychological theory
Whether you're a psychology student, enthusiast, or practicing counselor, this video will help you clearly see the contrast between a “psychology of possibility” and a “psychology of limitation.”
