Research methods. A complex of scientific research methods was used to implement the key tasks: theoretical analysis, generalization, comparison, systematization, theoretical modeling, and scientific interpretation. Research results. It is established that the image of an ideal reference figure, identification with which acts as an intermediate but important moment of life affirmation of a personality, constitutes a separate research problem in the modern psychology of life crises and the development of strategies for overcoming them. It is found out that the great potential of psychological science lies in its applied application for the purpose of overcoming the problems of the life crisis of a personality, in the disclosure of mechanisms of free internal dialogue of personal “Me” with different hypostases of self, in the disclosure of one’s own potential of subjectivity. It is shown that the genetic and creative method procedurally practically coincides with the process of counseling and therapy. This opens up the possibility of scientific analysis of the data obtained in this process. It is established that this method helps to study the very process of psychological practice, making it the subject of scientific research. The main principles of the genetic and creative method were developed and defined, namely, the principle of development, the principle of experience, the principle of freedom, the principle of interaction, the principle of uncertainty and indeterminism, the principle of therapeutic effect.

It is shown that the genetic-modeling method and the genetic-creative method are remained the most adequate methods of personality research; the basic principles of use are explained. New aspects of research on personality development and self-affirmation in modern conditions are revealed.
