Person-Centered Therapy p172
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Carl Rogers | spokesperson for humanistic psychology; introvert; client–therapist relationship central; father of psychotherapy research |
| People essentially trustworthy, have vast potential for resolving their own problems and are capable of self-directed growth | if they are involved in a specific kind of therapeutic relationship |
| Four periods of development of the approach | nondirective counseling; client-centered therapy; becoming one’s experience; person-centered approach |
| Nondirective counseling | emphasized the counselor’s creation of a permissive and nondirective climate; challenged advice, suggestion, direction, persuasion, teaching, diagnosis, and interpretation |
| Client-centered therapy | shift from clarification of feelings to a focus on the phenomenological world of the client; actualizing |
| Becoming one’s experience | trust experience, an internal locus of evaluation, and the willingness to be in process. |
| Person-centered approach | client’s frame of reference fosters the client’s utilization of inner and outer resources |
| Existentialism and humanism share | respect for the client’s subjective experience, client uniqueness, trust in client choices, freedom, choice, values, personal responsibility, autonomy, purpose, and meaning |
| Existentialists claim of anxiety of choosing, creating | an identity in a world that lacks intrinsic meaning and focus on death, anxiety, depression, and isolation |
| Humanists believe that each of us | has a natural potential that we can actualize and through which we can find meaning |
| The phenomenological emphasis that is basic to the existentialist approach | is also fundamental to person-centered theory |
| Abraham Maslow’s contributions to humanistic psychology | self-actualizing: self-awareness, freedom, basic honesty and caring, and trust, autonomy, intense interpersonal relationships |
| Hierarchy of needs | physiological, safety, belonging and love, esteem, self-actualization |
| Vision of humanistic philosophy | in the appropriate conditions, will “automatically” grow in positive ways |
| Person-centered approach rests | in attitudes and behaviors that create a growth-producing climate |
| View of Human Nature: trust in the client’s ability to move | forward in a constructive manner if conditions fostering growth are present |
| Rogers firmly maintained that people are trustworthy, resourceful, capable of self-understanding and self-direction, | able to make constructive changes, and live effective and productive lives |
| Therapists should experience and communicate their | realness, support, caring, and nonjudgmental understanding |
| Therapist attributes creating a growth-promoting climate (therapeutic core conditions) | congruence (genuineness), unconditional positive regard (acceptance and caring), and accurate empathic understanding (deeply grasp client's subjective world) |
| Actualizing tendency | striving toward realization, fulfillment, autonomy, and self-determination |
| Therapy is rooted in the client’s capacity for | awareness and self-directed change in attitudes and behavior |
| Discovery-oriented approach in which clients | are the experts on their own inner experience |
| The therapeutic process | therapeutic goals, therapist’s function and role, client’s experience in therapy, relationship between therapist and client |
| Therapeutic goals | independence and integration, assist clients in their growth |
| Therapist’s function and role | attitude of therapists, belief in the inner resources of the client, present and accessible to clients and focus on their immediate experience |
| Client’s experience in therapy | explore the full range of their experience, including their feelings, beliefs, behavior, and worldview |
| Relationship between therapist and client | empathic congruent therapist experiences unconditional positive regard for the incongruent client |
| Actualizing clients have | an openness to experience, a trust in themselves, an internal source of evaluation, and a willingness to continue growing |
| Congruence, or genuineness | genuine, integrated, and authentic during the therapy hour |
| Through authenticity the therapist serves as a model of a human being struggling | toward greater realness, expressing feelings like anger, frustration, liking, concern, and annoyance |
| Therapists need to be attuned to the emerging needs of the client and | to respond in ways that are in the best interests of the individual |
| Unconditional positive regard | communication is deep and genuine caring for the client as a person through empathic identification |
| Accurate empathic understanding | sense clients’ feelings as if they were his or her own without becoming lost in those feelings |
| Empathy helps client sattend to and value experiencing, process experience both cognitively | and bodily, view prior experiences in new ways, and increase their confidence choosing and acting |
| Multiple-perspective model of empathy | subjective, interpersonal, objective |
| Empathy is the most | powerful determinant of client progress in therapy |
