At Harvest Counseling and Wellness, we believe that every individual holds the potential for personal growth and healing. Our person-centered therapy approach provides a safe, non-judgmental environment where you are empowered to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors at your own pace.
What is Person-Centered Therapy?
Person-centered therapy, also known as client-centered or Rogerian therapy, is a therapeutic approach developed by psychologist Carl Rogers. The foundation of this approach is the belief that individuals possess an inherent ability to find solutions to their own problems and achieve personal growth. Rather than directing the session or prescribing solutions, the therapist provides a supportive space that encourages self-exploration and self-acceptance.
Key Elements of Person-Centered Therapy:
Empathy
Our therapists provide deep empathy, striving to understand your experience from your perspective. By being fully present and genuinely attuned to your needs, we help create a space where you feel truly heard and understood.Unconditional Positive Regard
We believe in offering unconditional positive regard—accepting and valuing you without judgment. This non-judgmental stance fosters trust, allowing you to open up and explore your emotions without fear of criticism or rejection.Congruence
Our therapists bring authenticity into each session. By being genuine and transparent, they help you feel comfortable expressing yourself, leading to a more meaningful therapeutic relationship.
Rather than diagnosing or directing the client, the therapist focuses on the client’s subjective experience and facilitates self-discovery. The non-directive nature of PCT means that the therapist avoids imposing interpretations or solutions, trusting that clients will find their own answers when provided with a supportive atmosphere.
