Person-Centred Counselling
|
Person-Centred Counselling (also known as Client-Centred or Rogerian Counselling) is a humanistic approach to therapy that recognises each person’s natural capacity for growth, healing, and self-understanding. Developed by psychologist Carl Rogers, this approach is based on the belief that everyone has an innate potential to live a fulfilling and authentic life, but that this growth can sometimes become blocked by difficult experiences or unmet emotional needs.

When we are made to feel that love, acceptance, or approval depend on meeting certain expectations or suppressing parts of ourselves, we may begin to hide or distort our true feelings. Over time, this can lead to low self-worth, emotional distress, and a sense of disconnection from who we really are.
In Person-Centred Therapy, the counsellor’s role is to provide a safe, non-judgemental, and empathic environment where you can explore your experiences freely. Within this supportive relationship, you are encouraged to reconnect with your authentic self, rediscover your values, and build a stronger sense of confidence and self-acceptance.
At the heart of this approach are the counsellor’s core attitudes of empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. When these qualities are experienced as genuine, the therapeutic relationship itself becomes the foundation for healing, growth, and change.
