Abstract
This paper provides a review of Person centred approached which is drawn from humanistic counselling. I review this approach to counselling with a specific focus on the Rogerian approach. The humanistic approach emerged with the works of Maslow, then later Carl Rogers, Rollo May and Eric Frome.
What resonates for me is Carl Rogers’ Person-centred theory as a message of hope for both the counsellor and the client. The notion that individuals are capable of self-actualising tendencies, being creative, finding their own answers became a new way of thinking about the client-counsellor process. In essence, I reflect on the seminal work of Rogers and its influence across a range of disciplines.
