I thought she did a good job. He seemed comfortable to open up to her, and start speaking more about the details of the relationship. she made him feel relaxed to start exploring the situation, which seemed a big development, as he really seemed kind of stubborn at first. Thats the mark of a therapist - not how well their comments are aimed, but whether or not the client can open up. And it seems fine to me.
I love when laypeople make remarks about therapists and psychologists as if they know what they're talking about. Go to school for seventeen years and become a licensed therapist. Then you may criticize.
Paraphrasing is a usefull tool at the start of therapy to build up a trust and to demonstrate your active listening to the client. But over reliance on it can make the relationship rather distant and stilted instead of being natural and organic. Once the client feels safer to open up they may want more than just their own words repeated back to them over and over again.
He has his arms and legs fiercely crossed the whole time. Looks quite protective. Therapist should have been putting him at ease (with all that ‘positive unconditional regard’ stuff) so he can open up.

I am a graduate student studying mental health and to respond to some of your comments regarding her repeating what the client says....that is actually correct (its called probing) and this is done to show the client that you are listening and also as a way to be sure that you are understanding what the client is saying. I do this alot in my residency when I am meeting with my clients. In school this is what they teach us to do. Repeating some of what the client says actually works.
I wonder if there is unconditional acceptance for the therapist here or if people need to repeat the same criticism over and over again ... just need to be real here ...
I see good paraphrasing, but during the bit labelled UPR, the therapist was talking about how other people find counselling helpful. This is not UPR. Telling a person that his approach is 'balanced' is a judgement that carries a value. PCA enables people to discover their own values. This is a good first try but really should not be taken as an example of good PCA therapy.
All the therapist does is repeating what her client is saying . Anybody can do that ! It's the same approach for a training for a helpline. You repeat everything and that's it.
she's not repeating it, she's checking that what she is understanding is actually what is going on for the client. It's 'reflecting' and one of the key componants of Person Centered therapy
@aimstheotter paraphrasing his story is not the same as reflecting. That reflecting is an important component of PCA is a caricature of the therapy that has long been dealt with.
The therapist needs to work on her mannerisms. She has good entrainment with the client's posture. But she says "right" too often, in a way that sounds more impatient than empathic. I didn't feel the emotional presence of therapist; she seemed to be waiting for the client to finish rather than listening to him in the moment; she seemed to have a limited script, and was too directive in her manner. Her comments were more assertions than reflections, more knowing than tentative guessing.
@jaw444 I disagree. She doesn't seem impatient at all, I mean after she says right she replies to his questions and over all anyone can tell that she is trying to be positive, although it might be confusing because she's so calm. But the patient, with his body language, at the beginning his arms are folded, his hands are unseen, he's clearly uncomfortable but as the talk goes on he begins to loosen up, somewhat. Tbh, some of your description sounds like your own comment..not trying to be mean.
@Fapple I agree with you. The client looked closed and he did show and mentioned that he feels uncomfortable. The counseller sayin "right" is called clarifying what the client said. If she had kept the silence for too long it would have made the client really uncomfortable. I think she was great.
I agree that the paraphasing was a bit much but I thought she was very effective at gently reassuring the client who was feeling quite comfortable at the start. This was only the first 5 minutes of the first session, it wasn't perfect but it seemed to have the makings of a good theraputic relationship.
@Nataliejems maybe it is the start of a good therapeutic relationship, but it is not person centred. She talks about how other people find it useful, she is focussing on the story about his wife, rather than working with his experience. where are the core conditions?
she had a relaxed and comfortable manner but this did come across as a little forced, it seemed to lack congruence. she paraphrased too often and therefore did too much talking, the whole point of this therapy is that it is client led.
I think the therapist is hitting the nail on the head. She understandes the basis of client centered therapy. If you watch Carl Rogers on you tube you will see he is doing the exact same thing. And this is good. But one of the first comments startes that ' she is paraphrasing too much' but isnt that the idea of client centered therapy? Good video.
Validation of emotion is present here verbally but she's coming across as an 'information booth' not a therapist . I think the focus should be unmet care need not problem summary...she's saying the right things, maybe a personality thing...
Disappointing, technique focused - paraphrasing continuously. Each time she does that instead of relate to the client I felt the real truth of the therapeutic encounter was lost. she isn't present as a real other person in this session. Not my style of therapy.
The role of the therapist is to LISTEN and allow the client to come to a conclusion on his/her own. The purpose of paraphrasing is to acknowledge (to the client) that he/she is being heard, which usually is what they want. She probably CAN'T relate, and its best she doesn't pretend she can
Sounds like this guy's wife need to be on hormone replacement therapy. Hormone imbalance is responsible for many of the bad behaviors found in perimenopausal women.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
learn to be a rogerian counsellor .. its more like go learn english ..and then rephrase everything..thats kinda dumb. I wud be annoyed as hell if thats what the therapist did to me !
This was an ok clip...the counselor should have focused more on the client and not the "children" or "wife"....It sounds like the client is really hurt from the situation, which I think should have been addressed; instead of focusing on the children...it is after all "Person Center Therapy."
right but the point is not to talk about the person but talk about things that are centered around the person or you cud say wat the person wants to talk about...
True, the client does direct the conversation, but the conversation is creating what's call the "triangle"; this is where the client is focusing on a third party; the client is avoiding the real issue by talking about someone who is not even there at the session; wouldn't you agree that it's easier to talk about others than about yourself? That's exactly what the client is doing. He needs to confront the issue, not sway away from it.
I agree but thats not the point of person centred therapy..you let the client take the lead and talk about whatever he/she wants to..you dont want to take the client to the topic if he/she doesnt want to..that is why i dont like it as a technique. Its not a treatment - anyone can do that
I wouldn't at all say that CBT is "less authentic" than PCT. Silence can be just as useful, and accepted, in CBT as it is in any other type of therapy, especially if the client is refusing to generate ideas, solutions, or responses without the help of the therapist.
When I was teaching PCT I often played Carl Rogers tapes, and students were often uncomfortable with silence - basically if he had nothing to say he said nothing, or deliberately paused so a client could just be. In my experience the students who felt uncomfortable preferred CBT where it is less authentic and hence less threatening.
I think the vid show's some basic skills like paraphrasing and genuine empathy... it's only five minutes, and I think it's impossible to show the fullness PCT in 5 minutes lol..
His body posture, arms and legs crossed, shows a defensive and closed position. Also he seems to be suggesting that the deterioration in his marital relationship is mainly his wife's fault with her many weaknesses.
I believe this is a good video for people who are in their first counseling course in the graduate level. I see the skills of attending behavior, modeling, paraphrazing, open invition for the client to talk, minimual encouragers to talk by the therapist, and a reflection of feelings when the therapist feeds back the feelings to the client to better understand the client's feelings. This video really helped me study for my oral exam.
Good!! Thats me...thats all me! 2nd year school psycho. I and my project partner have to do a presentation on PCT in about 2 wks! Ahhhhhhh!! lol Any suggestions? Other than showing this vid clip?
When she helped to reassure the man at the start i thought that was alright. I think though that she sounds too much like a parrot and her interventions are far too long.
This counsellor falls into the common trap of using pca as a formula instead of getting into the heart of Roger's message about relating at depth. She is distant and prescriptive from the beginning. A well meant training video but gives pca a bad name.
You seem to know a lot about it. Is the role of the counseller to be a "very good friend" to the client? If not, how does a friend differ from the rogerian counseller?
I like your question. The PC counsellor has been through rigorous pc training, has self awareness. Is informed about the extensive research on the essential qualities and attitudes of the therapist, and their therapeutic effectiveness. Rogers describes his preparation for a session in the 'Gloria' tapes (youtube). Its a good starting point for the curious.
well I think its helpful in the sense that the interviewer is showing a genuine kind of understanding of her client's problems and this is one of the most important elements in PCT
I just want to say that this seems like a stellar demonstration to me. The patient - client is very unaccustomed to getting help with personal issues, his body language is classically self-protective, and the therapist is letting him know, not that she will personally make a difference, but that many people go thorugh similar concerns and get to the other side in the therapeutic process and end up feeling better. She's reassuring and supportive, & starts by greeting him right at his resistance.
I'm currently training to be a counsellor and my first impressions are the pretentiousness of the counselors. I'm no hardman by any means but even I would have to concede that people may find this very off putting if you're just going to be "mothered" by the counsellor.
im majoring counseling... and this is my final year.. where is the inform consent? should we begin every session with it right? and building rappor with the client.. after that we proceed to the exploration
Might be more awkward that its posted on youtube. having relationship issues are 100% normal. Most important thing is the relationship with your counselor.
yeah we do use body awareness in PCC but its not the main focus. that tends to be a more Gestalt approach. we would more likely use the core conditions to understand clients inner world.
As said, PCC counselling is about working with he client so that he or she finds atheir own asnwers. CBT ib the the other hand is for people who dont want to take responibility for working through their own solutions. I prefere PCC its a more adult appraoch !
CBT requires the client to take responsibility for self, I think. I don't know any therapy at all that doesn't require the client to take responsibilty for their own sense of change.
PCT is about getting a person to tune into and trust their own wisdom/self. It's a faith thing.
It's not about 'cure' or getting rid of the problem. We create our own problems because they help us to grow. Well, at least they do if we take responsibility for ourselves.
Wouldn't it be nice to stroll in off the street and be given the answers? But; bad advice...'she's a cow', good advice ...'she's wonderful'. For somebody to give me their undivided just for ten minutes would be a wonderful step in the right direction. Horses for courses.
all she doing is paraphrasing there no actual answers with PCT the thing i don't like about is its anoying for people who want advice or concrete answers, this therapy only good for cup of tea chats...i prefer CBT
I agree lol!, I understand that the therapist is trying to get the client to reflect on their own emotions and perspectives in order to find a solution, but I think CBT or REBT can get there quicker.
Her saying "right, mm hmm and okay" can totally interfere and distract the client. And she's talking more than the client.

all she doing is paraphrasing there no actual answers with PCT the thing i don't like about is its anoying for people who want advice or concrete answers, this therapy only good for cup of tea chats...i prefer CBT

I agree lol!, I understand that the therapist is trying to get the client to reflect on their own emotions and perspectives in order to find a solution, but I think CBT or REBT can get there quicker.

I would feel quite comfortable talking with this counsellor she has a very calm & warm approach... thanks for the posting.
