The psychodynamic perspective refers to the explanation of personality when referring to unconscious psychological processes, and it also states that childhood experiences have a very important role in the way we shape our personality.
The Psychodynamic perspective has a close relationship with Sigmund Freud's work as well as with psychoanalysis, which is psychotherapy that examines the different unconscious thoughts of a patient to give the person the opportunity of having a better understanding of him or her. Sigmund Freud's work not only has had a lot of influence and it has impacted other knowledge areas, but it has been controversial.
