Additionally, developing self-awareness helps the client to rediscover meaning in life. Some clients will, however, need a more structured therapy than is typical in a humanistic person-centered approach. One of the strengths of using a humanistic/person-centered approach when working with clients is the warmth and caring of the relationship that (hopefully) develops between counsellor and client. The counsellors active listening and full emotional availability will provide them with a healing environment within which they can explore their emotional experiences safely and without judgment. Central to the therapist's role in client-centred therapy is respecting the clients values as well as maintaining a therapeutic nonjudgmental attitude.

I am going to explore the core conditions that Carl Rogers uses in his theory of person centred counselling. There are three core conditions: congruence, empathic understanding and unconditional positive regard.

I am then going to use my own experiences to discuss why I feel that only using the person technique, for certain clients, may not be sufficient to make the progress they require on an emotional level. On the other hand I am going to discuss how learning the person centred approach has affected my personal and work life in a positive way.

What is an Occupational Therapist An Occupational Therapist employs a centered client oriented approach that aims in enabling and supporting individuals living with injuries, disabilities or illness and assist them to maximize their reserve potential, in order to live a dignified serene life. The role of an OT encompasses numerous analytical, assessment, great communication skills and exceptional liaison attributes.

There are many ways to indicate a genuine concern for your client by techniques like: “nod of the head, correct body language and interruption at relevant times to ask questions” (Woods, 2011).
