Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Person-Centred Counselling in a Nutshell provides a short, accessible guide to one of the most popular approaches to counseling. Based on the ideas of Carl Rogers, the approach′s main premise is that clients know themselves better than anyone else. It is the job of the person-centred practitioner to enable the client to discover and utilize their inner resources in order to change and grow.
Using examples drawn from practice, Roger Casemore outlines the main principles of the person-centred approach including the core therapeutic conditions - congruence, unconditional positive regard, and empathy.
Person-Centred Counselling in a Nutshell is ideal first reading for all who are new to learning about counseling.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 106-107) and index.
An overview of the person-centred approach to counselling and to life -- Beginning the counselling relationship -- The beliefs underpinning the person-centred approach -- The challenge of the three central conditions -- The process of personality change in counselling and in life -- The relationship is the therapy.
