Explanation
Answer: B - Yes, the difference between regression therapy and psychodynamic therapy is regression therapy is more solution-focused and psychodynamic therapy is more about the process and the experience of coming to a solution. Regression therapy focuses on finding a solution to a problem by helping the client to revisit his or her past to find trouble spots, then working to understand feelings and thoughts. Psychodynamic therapy first treats the client’s present-day issues and then works to acknowledge the existence of a pre-existing problem from the past, working to develop goals for change.
