The Mystical Power of Person-Centred Therapy: Hope Beyond Despair

This book takes the later work of Carl Rogers with the utmost seriousness and moves into unexpected and perhaps dangerously controversial terrain. Rogers discovered that he had greatly underestimated both the mystical quality of the therapeutic process and the power of the person-centred approach to give access to the spiritual dimension of experience. Professor Thorne takes this concept further and explores the implications of regarding person-centred therapy as an essentially spiritual discipline. 111 pages.
