Description
Person-centred therapy is a widely practised approach rooted in the work of Carl Rogers. This comprehensive guide offers a valuable overview of the principles and philosophy underpinning the approach, as well as its application in various settings. The book provides a detailed discussion of the classical theory, as well as updates on recent developments and advances in the field. The book explores key areas of person-centred therapy, including the model of the person, the process of constructive change, and the quality of presence in working at relational depth. It also addresses criticisms of the approach and discusses its application in practice, including work with people experiencing severe and enduring distress. The final section highlights recent advances and developments in theory and practice. This book is a valuable resource for students, scholars, and practitioners of person-centred therapy, as well as anyone looking to learn more about this major psychotherapeutic modality.
