description Positive psychotherapy is a therapy model that stands out with its analytical and humanistic features. According to the positive psychotherapy approach, one of the important conflicts is the basic conflict. The conflicts between the concepts developed by the clients form the basis of the basic conflict. In order to solve the basic conflicts of the clients, it is first necessary to formulate their basic conflicts. This study aims to present a systematic model for formulating the basic conflict.
