increasing the client's awareness of underlying motives and defenses

Explanation:

Insight therapies will be conducted on the assumption that the psychological problems that are experienced by the patients are caused by their lack of understanding in their beliefs or source of motivation.

During the session, the therapies will guide the patients to slowly analyze why the patients held the belief in the first place. They will ask questions such as Were they acquired it on their free will or whether those belief are forced to them by other people. Gradually, the patients will start to see their beliefs in different perspective and might change the way they view themselves.
