What is humanistic counselling?
Humanistic counselling, also referred to as humanistic-existential counselling, is a form of therapy highlighting the importance of being your true self. Based on Carl Rogers’ theories, humanistic psychotherapy shifts the focus to the individual, asserting they are in control of their own destiny.
As we go through life, we often convince ourselves our dark thoughts and actions make us bad people. But what informs that statement? With the help of your counsellor, you will learn how you came to form your opinion about yourself and others, how to shift the viewpoint, and gain insight into the way meaning is constructed.
Humanistic psychotherapists at Psymplicity will help you unpack your understanding of life and how this informs your sense of self and others. The therapy is highly focused on self-growth. It uses positive reinforcements as a form of self-empowerment. As your view of the world impacts your actions and choices, focusing on a positive attitude can help you make better decisions and live a more fulfilling life.
Indeed, the core belief of humanistic counselling is that all people are good at heart, including ourselves.

The humanistic approach relies on the idea that you are the expert of your own life. Therefore, you alone will know how to face difficult situations. The role of a humanistic therapist is one of support and understanding. They will listen to your concerns and feelings, ensuring you understand your own mind. They may ask follow-up questions to help you dig deeper into your thoughts.
