CPD WORKSHOP
The Tribes of Person-Centred Therapy: Celebration of Diversity & Difference
About the Workshop
Person-centred therapy is a wonderfully rich set of therapeutic approaches. This workshop will introduce participants to this diverse and colourful field, from its roots in the non-directive counselling of Carl Rogers to its many different contemporary forms. Our journey through the tribes of person-centred therapy will include the classical non-directive approach, focusing, emotion-focused therapy, creative person-centred practices, pre-therapy, person-centred experiential counselling for depression, motivational interviewing, relational approaches, and integrative/pluralistic perspective. For each of these tribes, we will explore their development and core assumptions; and participants will have an opportunity to get a lived ‘feel’ of these approaches through videos of practice and/or experiential exercises. The workshop is appropriate for training and practising counsellors, psychotherapists, counselling psychologists and other mental health professionals.
Who is it for?
This workshop is particularly orientated to students or practitioners of the person-centred approach who have—or are developing—a good understanding of the core assumptions and practice, but would like to know more of the diversity that the approach offers.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to recognise the main perspectives on person-centred therapy, and be able to articulate differences and similarities between the tribes.
