Clarita arrives for her appointment 15 minutes early and appears motivated to reduce her depressive symptoms. The counselor may assume her eagerness is a consequence of anxiety resulting from a conflict between her id (or her basic drives) and her superego (the moral and ethically responsible component of her personality), evolving from past attachment-based experiences. The counselor helps Clarita set the goal of raising her awareness of her unconscious processes into consciousness and recognizing how her symptoms are a manifestation of painful life experiences and to learn new coping skills.
