Person centred TherapyBrian ThorneA chapter from: Individual therapy : A Handbook Windy Dryden (Ed) 2nd edition .Milton Keynes. Open University Press October 1990. This book is in its 5th edition nowHistorical Context and Developments in BritainHistorical ContextDr. Carl Rogers, the American psychologist and founder of what has now become known as Person - centred counselling or psychotherapy, has always claimed to be grateful that he never had one particular mentor. He has been influenced by many significant figures often holding widely differing viewpoints; but above all he claims to be the student of his own experience and of that of his clients and accepting Rogers's undoubtedly honest claim about his primary sources of learning, there is much about his thought and practice which places him within a recognisable tradition.
The influence of the person-centred approach in Britain was further enhanced by the publication in 1988 of Person-Centred Counselling in Action co-authored by Dave Mearns and Brian Thorne. This milestone book has now been reprinted on numerous occasions and has sold more than 45,000 copies (Mearns and Thorne, 1988).
