Abstract
The article deals with the formation of self-concept of an individual and its changes in the context of Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor. It focused on the impact of self-discrepancy theory, theory of self-guides and deficits in basic developmental needs on personal life of the individual, interpersonal relationships and studying. Currently we meet students who are relatively successful, objectively have good study results but subjectively perceive anxiety, can hardly prepare for exams, do not have trust in themselves, they evaluate themselves rather negatively, they have a low self-esteem and self-confidence. They tend to have problems in interpersonally relationships, mainly in partnerships. In the process of the therapy there are topics which occur from the personal history that are linked with satisfaction of basic developmental needs by parenting persons, towards the life standards (self-guides), which had been passed on by significant others. We find the deficits in satisfaction of basic developmental needs and its after-effects, discrepancy in self-concept. Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor offers to enter into scenic-symbolic space and perceive on a symbolic level adequate interaction with parental persons which brings alternative memory and becomes a part of the individual's memory and therefore positively influences its self-concept.
