Contributions to Client-Centered Therapy and the Person-Centered Approach by Nathaniel J Raskin

Contributions to Client-Centered Therapy and the Person-Centered Approach by Nathaniel J Raskin

Contributions to Client-Centered Therapy and the Person-Centered Approach brings together an important set of difficult-to-obtain original papers and writings by Nat Raskin for academics, teachers, researchers and all serious students. This humble title conceals a treasure-trove of work covering practically the whole sixty-year history of this approach from its origins as 'nondirective therapy' to its present day incarnation as the 'person-centred approach'. As a student and later colleague of Carl Rogers, Nat Raskin's contributions are of particular value to present-day scholars. His involvement in the development of the approach is traced through sixteen chapters starting with one of the most frequently-quoted papers in the client-centred archive and concluding with a paper published in 2001.
