Person Centred Therapy in Focus provides a much-needed exploration of the criticisms levelled against one of the most widespread forms of therapeutic practice. Characterized by its critics as theoretically "light", culturally biased and limited in application, until now the person-centred approach has had comparatively little written in its defence. The book provides a rigorous and systematic response to the critics, drawing not only on the work of Carl Rogers, but of those central to more recent developments in theory and practice (including Goff Barrett-Lennard, Dave Mearns, Jerold Bozarth, Germain Leitauer and Brian Thorne). It traces the epistemological foundations of person-centred therapy and places the approach in its social and political context.
