Insight therapy or insight orientated psychotherapy are general terms used to describe a group of tharapies that assumes that a person's behavior, thoughts, and emotions become disordered because they do not understand what motivates them

The theory of insight therapy, therefore, is that a greater awareness of motivation will result in an increase in control and an improvement in thought, emotion, and behavior. The goal of these therapy is to help an individual discover the reasons and motivation for their behavior, feelings, and thinking so that they may make appropriate changes and thus improve their mental health.

These therapies may all be described as insight orientated: psychoanalysis, analytical psychology psychodynamic therapy person-centered therapy.
