Response – Carl Rogers’ Person-Centered Therapy
Response to Adalia Canfield
Hello Adalia,
Great job with your post. You provided an insightful overview of Carl Rogers’ person-centered therapy, particularly emphasizing its core strength in fostering a non-judgmental environment conducive to personal growth. As you mentioned, Rogers’ emphasis on the inherent drive for self-actualization aligns well with contemporary psychological practices that prioritize autonomy and personal agency (Yao & Kabir, 2023).
While Rogers is more fixated on feelings and interpersonal interaction in therapy, Kelly’s PCT could be a more formal approach to how one perceives the world and might be more suitable for specific cognitive therapies (Walker & Winter, 2023). However, it would be most beneficial to Rogers’ approach in therapeutic settings where the emphasis is placed on interpersonal rapport. However, suppose perseverance is important in a certain field. In that case, using information from the PCT of subjects like Kelly might be more useful in research conditions where the ability to comprehend what cognitive schemata people employ in certain situations is essential (Tsai & Tan, 2022).
Further, although both theories are useful, it appears that Kelly’s theory has more general implications for modern personality psychology, especially for cognitive studies and practice, while Rogers’ approach is still crucial for client-centred psychotherapy, emphasizing the aspects of empathy and change.
