Answer 1

According to this statement, it can be concluded that Sean follows a Psychodynamic approach.

Explanation:

Psychodynamics includes all the "theories in psychology" that stresses the study of "human functioning" based upon their behavior, feelings, and emotions and how they may have been affected by early experiences like childhood ones.

The psychodynamic approach focuses on the "role of early childhood" experiences in the development of an individual’s problems and also the unconscious mind significantly affects our behavior and feelings. Sigmund Freud was the psychiatrist, neurologist and the principal pioneer to have theorized and introduced this theory.
