What is Person Centred Counselling?
Wednesday, March 18th, 2009Person-Centred / Humanistic Counselling is a supportive form of therapy where you are given the space and safety to share your concerns. Person-Centred / Humanistic Counselling is based on the philosophy that individuals are full of potential for growth. Given the right conditions, people are all capable of being loving, creative and knowledgeable. Humanistic therapy evolved in the 1950s and 1960s in the USA as part of a ‘human potential movement’.
A Person-Centred Counsellor will ask questions which lead you to deep discoveries about your feelings, your blind spots, your needs and your hopes. Person-centred Counselling forms the backdrop to all our counselling work. Your therapist will be empathic, understanding, supportive and non-judgemental.
