This book uses the humanistic psychology of Carl Rogers to offer a comprehensive person-centred communication framework, which the authors have tried and tested in therapeutic, education and management practice. Skilfully blending theory with practice, the authors explain the core skills of person-centred communication. There are reflective exercises and conversation transcripts from a variety of settings, along with many examples from therapy and related helping professions. These span diverse life situations and applications, including:One-to-one work with clientsTeamwork and groupworkLifelong learningReflectionOnline and other written forms of communication Exploring these real life situations offers invaluable inspiration to therapists, students and trainees as well as practitioners in the helping professions.
