The eclectic approach in psychology is an approach to
psychotherapy that, based on the client’s troubles, uses methods from several
forms of psychotherapy. It educates them there are other approaches to do same
thing and thus improving themselves.
Eclecticism is an abstract approach that does not hold firmly
to a single paradigm or set of suppositions, but instead draws upon several
stories, ideas, or styles to gain complementary judgments into a subject or
applies different theories in particular cases.
It can at
times seem awkward or lacking in simplicity, and eclectics are sometimes
criticized for lack of steadiness in their thinking. It is, however, frequent
in many fields of study.
