Regardless of which method you use to build up your house of therapeutic methods, what Carl Rogers practiced and stood for, will always remain a big part of its foundation whether you like to admit it or not.
His theory is very true. When the first time i took my hotel management degree, i didn't have serious interest to learn because it is not my interest. My parents force me to get that major. But now, i continue my education according to my interest. I'm very enthusiastic to learn & put an effort on it. On my first collage, i got fews "A" the rest of them "B" & "C", but now mostly "A" and only couple "B".
Don't forget that all three leaders of the humanistic Human Potential Movement just before their deaths recanted on at least some of their ideas, and said they had been wrong, yet educators and psychologists aren't yet humble enough to acknowledge this because they are guilty of the same mistakes.
@DeanCo7777 Who are you identifying as the "three leaders of the Human Potential Movement"? Which ideas of theirs did they ultimately declare wrong? What is your source for this information?
I admire Carl Rogers much more than Freud or Jung or the other big shots in psychology, because he really was more concerned about people instead of feeding his ego.
Rogers was a gem, however, person-centered counselling isn't for everyone (from both a practitioner and client perspective). It requires authenticity and courage from both, and not everyone is Carl Rogers - sadly :)
I prefer the humanistic approach to psychodynamic - although I think transference plays a part - which is very much played down in the humanistic approach.
i did a 2200 word essay on Rogers and the person-centred approach last week :-) it was originally called "nondirective therapy" and then it was called "client-centred therapy" before being finally changed to "person-centred therapy".
rogers' conditions for therapeutic personality change have been adopted all over the field of psychotherapy, not just those psychotherapists who identify as person-centred therapists.
no, not at all. everyone studies freud but carl rogers created CLIENT CENTERED THERAPY and was part of the Humanistic movement of psychotherapy that began in the 60s. Check on his book ON BECOMING A PERSON.
For helping clients he came up with 4 unique principles which he practiced with great success:
I have just completed a course in Counselling and found his ideas very refreshing compared to Freud's pschodynamic theories - although I think transference is an important part of counselling and I'm not sure if Rogers recognised this.
