What is Person Centered Therapy and What Can You Expect?

Person-Centered Therapy is a warm, non-directive approach that emphasizes your innate capacity for growth, self-discovery, and healing. Developed by Carl Rogers, this therapy is based on the belief that when provided with the right environment—one filled with empathy, acceptance, and genuine understanding—you can naturally move toward positive change and self-fulfillment.

What Does a Person Centered Approach Look Like in Therapy?

Sessions focus on:

  • Empathetic and Non-Judgmental – Your therapist will create a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and accepted just as you are.

  • Led by You – Instead of directing the conversation or giving advice, your therapist will follow your lead, supporting you as you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace.

  • Focused on Self-Discovery – Through deep listening and open-ended reflections, your therapist will help you gain clarity, insight, and a stronger connection to your authentic self.

  • Built on a Genuine Relationship – A key element of this approach is the therapist’s authenticity, unconditional positive regard, and deep respect for your unique journey.

How Can Person Centered Therapy Help You?

This approach is especially effective for those seeking self-exploration, emotional healing, and personal growth. It can be helpful for anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

If you’re looking for a supportive space where you can feel completely accepted and empowered to become the best version of yourself, Person-Centered Therapy may be a great fit.
