Courtney Act’s psyche follows an introverted flow. She knows herself and attempts to develop her inner resources to their maximum potential.

Courtney Act is oriented toward other people because she is motivated by a need to work in common with other people and to share life’s pleasures and pain. Her commitments to other people are of paramount importance to her personal development. This dependence may present difficulties with individual self-assertion and make it hard for her to make decisions alone, but it also makes her a powerful advocate for others. If she wants to achieve inner equilibrium, she must behave in such a way that her actions yield benefits to others as well as herself.

Courtney Act demonstrates great interest in the outside world, social affairs, and anything else that contributes to the growth and development of society as a whole. Clubs, organizations, and other forms of partnership attract her attention and motivate her behavior. She tries to protect herself from her subjectivity by adopting an impersonal approach to life. Devoted to the common cause, her destiny is no longer hers alone. It is almost entirely controlled by the people whose cause she has espoused.

Courtney Act thinks, intuit, and perceives things primarily from within. She is open and curious, optimistic and enthusiastic, and eager to participate in everything happening around her. Her affections are lively and spontaneous, but may be more intellectual than sensual. In a partner, Courtney Act would seek a source of mutual spiritual or artistic inspiration. Light-hearted and perhaps even fickle, she never allows herself to be overcome by outer realities or emotions. In its most exaggerated form, her buoyancy borders on indifference.

Courtney Act struggles to understand her own emotions. She sees the emotional world as a foreign terrain, perhaps fraught with hidden dangers. Becoming familiar with it would present more drawbacks than advantages. As a result, she may appear to be hard or aloof. She might struggle to establish a rewarding relationship, as she seeks special individuals to bond with. If she were able to accept and understand her own emotions, she would have an easier time grappling with other people’s feelings. She has a strong desire for emotional independence, and might have trouble seeing other people’s emotional needs. She might even be the first to deny that such needs are real. As a result, her dependency on others is unconscious. Because it is seen as such a threat, it is repressed. Actually, although she offers conscious resistance to anyone who tries to lure her out of her emotional bubble, she is always making timid, half-conscious forays into the world of feelings, because her loneliness and fear are so unbearable.
