Answer:

a. Psychodynamic therapy

Step-by-step explanation:

Psychodynamic theory is one of the different approaches used in therapy. This kind of therapy was first introduced by Sigmund Freud. One of the main characteristics of this approach is how it focuses on how our early relationships during childhood determine the way we will relate to others in adulthood. It also focuses in the unconscious patterns that make us repeat patterns of behaviors that we learned when we were kids.

One of the main goals of this therapy is to identify these patterns, understand them and, as the person understand them, a change comes in a natural way and the person can develop healthier patterns of relation.

In this example, Hanna's therapist wants to help her recognize her mixed feelings for her husband and to realize she experienced the same kind of feelings for her brothers during her childhood. We can see that the therapist is focusing in Hanna's childhood and to make her realize how she's repeating patterns she had during her childhood, this is one of the main goals of psychodynamic therapy.
