Person-centered therapy, sometimes referred to as client-centered therapy, is a humanistic approach that allows clients to have greater control over the direction of the conversation, so that they feel a greater sense of agency in finding their own solutions.  The therapist serves as an empathetic and nonjudgmental facilitator, actively listening and validating the client’s experience.   The non-directive therapist provides support and encouragement as the client leads in their own journey of self-discovery.
