Person-centred therapy, also referred to as client-centred counselling, is a therapeutic approach that concentrates on the individual's distinct experiences, emotions, and viewpoints. Originating from the work of psychologist Carl Rogers in the 1940s, it is predicated on the belief that individuals possess an inherent ability to develop, recover, and resolve their issues. The cornerstone of person-centred counselling is the establishment of a secure and non-judgmental space, enabling clients to openly explore their inner thoughts and feelings.
1. Get Eight Hours of Sleep a Night “Getting adequate sleep is underrated in this country, but it’s so important,” says Dr. Gobin.
