The most innate tendency of
humans is a drive towards self-
actualization
![Page 7: Carl Rogers (1902-1987) - Breckenridge Independent School ... · Carl Rogers (1902-1987) Humanistic-Existential Paradigm Self Theory. THE PAST HAS ITS CHARMS, BUT NOTHING NEW EVER](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022041607/5e34c4fd6556fc4b0e59f87f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Rogers Self Theory
The individual’s subjectively felt and
interpreted experience is the only
reality.
The person’s experience of “self” is
important in the formation of
personality.
The “self” develops through our
interaction with others.
![Page 8: Carl Rogers (1902-1987) - Breckenridge Independent School ... · Carl Rogers (1902-1987) Humanistic-Existential Paradigm Self Theory. THE PAST HAS ITS CHARMS, BUT NOTHING NEW EVER](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022041607/5e34c4fd6556fc4b0e59f87f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Rogers Self Theory
When the way we actually are and our self-
concept, our ideal self, are the same
(congruence) the person is self-actualized.
When the way we actually are and our self-
concept, our ideal self, are different the
person experiences confusion, tension and
maladaptive behavior (incongruence).
We will grow up congruent if we are
accepted, prized and loved for what we are
(unconditional positive regard).

Rogers Self Theory

Open, authentic, communication in
which the way I present myself to the
world matches what I think and feel at a
deeper level. Rogers writes, "I have
found, in my relations with persons, that
in the long run it does not help to
pretend to be something I am not."

His Therapeutic Approach
Nondirective," "client-centered," and "person-
centered." are the terms Rogers used at
different points in his career, for his method.
This method involves removing obstacles so
the client can move forward, freeing him or her
for normal growth and development. It
emphasizes being fully present with the client
and helping the latter truly feel his or her own
feelings, desires, etc.. Being "nondirective" lets
the client deal with what he or she considers
important, at his or her own pace.

The Six Conditions Necessary for
Personality Change
Two persons are in psychological contact.
The first person, the client, is in a state of
incongruence.
The second person, or therapist, is
congruent.
the therapist experiences unconditional
positive regard for the client.
![Page 16: Carl Rogers (1902-1987) - Breckenridge Independent School ... · Carl Rogers (1902-1987) Humanistic-Existential Paradigm Self Theory. THE PAST HAS ITS CHARMS, BUT NOTHING NEW EVER](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022041607/5e34c4fd6556fc4b0e59f87f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Six Conditions Necessary for
Personality Change...
The therapist experiences an emphatic understanding of the client’s internal frame of reference and endeavors to communicate this experience to the client.
The communication to the client of the therapist’s empathic understanding and unconditional positive regard must be minimally achieved.
![Page 17: Carl Rogers (1902-1987) - Breckenridge Independent School ... · Carl Rogers (1902-1987) Humanistic-Existential Paradigm Self Theory. THE PAST HAS ITS CHARMS, BUT NOTHING NEW EVER](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022041607/5e34c4fd6556fc4b0e59f87f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Rogers' clients tend to move away from facades,
away from "oughts," and away from pleasing
others as a goal in itself. Then tend to move
toward being real, toward self-direction, and
toward positively valuing oneself and one's own
feelings. Then learn to prefer the excitement of
being a process to being something fixed and
static. They come to value an openness to inner
and outer experiences, sensitivity-to and
acceptance-of others as they are, and develop
greater ability achieve close relationships.
