Currently Playing: The Person-Centred Approach - Explorations in Theory, Practice & Process

🌿 *The Person Centred Approach: Explorations in Theory, Practice and Process* 🌿 I’m excited to share this conversation, where we dive into key aspects of the Person-Centred Approach - its applications, challenges, and even my own personal process. In this interview, we explore a wide range of topics, from *developing congruence* and *navigating non-directivity* to *letting go of the pressure to "do it right" as a therapist.* We also discuss the role of *questions in person-centred practice* and much more. I hope this conversation offers valuable insights for both your *personal and professional growth.* This is the second half of my conversation with Harry from ⁨@OnBecomingATherapist You can watch the full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XCbdTTDsqQ In the first half, we explore the *Core Conditions,* individually and in depth, *Carl Rogers* and the *Actualising Tendency.* I'd love to hear your thoughts!
