Abstract

Rogers speaks of his continual learning as a therapist. He notes that whatever he has learned is also applicable to all of his human relationships, not just to working with clients with problems. This chapter shows how this knowledge may have meaning for you in your experience, since all of us are involved in relationships. Rogers attempts to describe the relationship which is basic to constructive personality change. He tries to put into words the type of capacity which the individual brings to such a relationship. The third phase of his general statement is that change and personal development would occur. It is his hypothesis that in such a relationship the individual will reorganize himself at both the conscious and deeper levels of his personality in such a manner as to cope with life more constructively, more intelligently, and in a more socialized as well as a more satisfying way.
