What is Person-Centered Therapy?
Person-Centred Therapy, developed by Carl Rogers, is a humanistic approach that emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity.
This method believes that every person has the capacity for growth and healing when provided with a supportive, nonjudgmental environment.
Who is Person-Centered Therapy For?
This approach is suitable for anyone, and can be especially helpful for people who:
-
Value a collaborative, non-directive style of therapy
-
Want to feel deeply heard and respected
-
Are navigating anxiety, depression, or grief
-
Seek personal growth and self-acceptance
-
Have experienced judgment or stigma in other settings
How Person-Centered Therapy Works
In person-centered therapy, your therapist provides:
-
Empathy – understanding your perspective without judgment
-
Unconditional positive regard – valuing you as a person, not just your challenges
-
Authenticity – being genuine and transparent in the therapeutic relationship.
Together, this creates a safe environment where you can explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences at your own pace.
