Understanding Person-Centred Counselling

A Personal Journey

Beschreibung

This book provides a key introduction to the theory, concepts and practice of the person-centred approach, through the lens of the practitioner s experience and personal development.

Writing as someone who has been through real life challenges and has developed and learned as a result, the author s strikingly personal style not only helps to contextualise complex and nuanced theory, but makes this a truly unique book about real person-centred practice and experience. From Roger s early philosophy through to the current developments and controversies in the field, the author uses personal testimonies, exercises and reflection points to make challenging concepts and practice issues accessible for the novice reader. What results is an informative and fascinating read for all those training and interested in the person-centred approach.

Autor

I don't remember learning how to read. It seems as though I picked up a book and the contents simply came to life for me. I was the child in the corner with her head in a book and her imagination running wild. I am now the adult doing the same.I was raised in Darwin, Australia in a funny and loving family - one which allowed us to be individuals and think for ourselves. By the time I was 12 I had started a school newspaper, opened a school restaurant and directed my first play. Curiosity has been my guiding light and has led me down many paths, sparking my imagination and creativity and gifting me with the exploration of what the world has to offer. Through this I have been a business owner, chef, teacher, actor, singer, festival director, theatre producer, magazine editor, publisher and writer.I know how to cook a mean paella, love graphic design and most of all, I love words. Words are wonderful and stringing them together, can make for incredible magic. They transport us to other places, scare us, entice us, excite us, play with our emotions. This is why I write - to create stories and share ideas, to bring words to life and hopefully make people happy with what I do.Things I like to write about - fiction, children's stories, non-fiction, short stories, food and cookbooks.
