Cindy suggested that her nail biting might be a symptom of unconscious resentment toward her parents. her therapist chuckled and said, “no, cindy, your problem isn't unconscious hostility; your problem is nail biting.” cindy's therapist sounds most like a therapist.

I think that closest answer to the question is that Cindy's therapist is a behavior-focused therapist. This therapy is where the professional is focused on the action of the client rather than psychoanalytic tendencies.  

Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in your queries.
