What is Person-Centred Counselling?

Carl Rogers (1902-1987) pioneered a new way of working with clients in a therapeutic process. Essentially a philosophy rather than a technique, the foundations of this way of counselling are non-judgmental and therapeutic, offering the client;

  • A space in which to be heard

  • Non – judgmental listening

  • Reflective interventions

  • A safe environment

  • Unconditional respect for feelings

  • Empathetic understanding

  • Honesty with respect

  • Confidentiality

In Person-centred counselling, the counsellor works with the client as he or she seeks to function better as a person. It is the counsellor’s belief that when the client is given respect and understanding from the counsellor in a climate of honesty, he or she will be more likely to develop as person .

The Person-centred counsellor does not give advice or offer solutions to a client's problems, but helps the client to understand their own needs and assists in finding ways of meeting those needs.

Rooted in humanistic philosophy, Person-centred counselling has an inherent optimistic view of the individual and the belief that each person has the capacity to move in the direction of a more fulfilling and satisfying way of living their lives. It is based on a trust in the inner resources of each individual to find their own answers and direction to achieve their aims. Person-centred counselling aims to help you to be able to understand your own limitations and potentialities by exploring how you experience yourself, promoting greater self awareness and acceptance and thus empowering you to make your own choices in how you live your life.

The counselling process is dependent to a large degree on the relationship between client and counsellor, and as with all relationships, the counselling relationship takes time to develop usually over a number of sessions. Person-centred counselling is not a quick fix but it can, given time and commitment, enable a client to live a more fulfilled life.

By approaching counselling in the belief that you have the answers to your unhappiness, and in telling your counsellor about what is wrong, you will hear the beginning of a way forward.

Together you can build on that beginning until your world changes from an unhappy place, to one that is more hopeful and optimistic.
