On this episode of the Being Effectively Podcast, Dr. Rick and Forrest discover humanistic psychology, the mid-Twentieth century motion that redefined how therapists relate to shoppers. It challenged the pessimism of Freud and the mechanism of behaviorism, providing a extra hopeful different: that our nature is basically good, and our job is to let it shine by. They focus on Carl Rogers’ work, together with self-actualization, situations of price, unconditional constructive regard, trusting your expertise, and the central function of the therapeutic alliance. All through, they concentrate on what you may take from these concepts into your life.
