Humanistic–Existential Therapy

Humanistic–Existential Therapy

It is the client who knows what hurts, what directions to go, what problems are crucial, what experiences have been deeply buried.

—Carl Rogers, from On Becoming a Person

This client-centered perspective is the cornerstone of humanistic-existential therapy, which requires therapists to “attempt to receive clients with curiosity and openness, endeavor to grasp their subjective world, and believe that clients are the experts on their own experience” (Wheeler, 2014, p. 373). As the psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner, it is important to understand that the effectiveness of this approach is dependent on your relationship with clients, as well as your beliefs on holism and human nature.

Compare humanistic-existential therapy with other approaches and justify its use with individual patients. 

· Distinguish between humanistic-existential psychotherapy and other types of psychotherapy

· Justify the use of humanistic-existential psychotherapy approaches with individual patients

Assignment: Comparing Humanistic-Existential Psychotherapy with Other Approaches
