This book examines the scientific contribution and increasing
relevance of the Person-Centered Approach (PCA) in psychotherapy.
The direction taken in the book is to provide readers with a
multidisciplinary and multi-perspective view as well as practical
applications. Beyond the more conventional psychotherapy
applications (client-centered, experimental, emotion-focused,
child-centered, motivational interviewing, existential, filial,
etc.) others have evolved including peace and conflict resolution
work, encounter and T-groups, nonviolent communication, parent
effectiveness training, person-centered planning for people with
disabilities, relationship enhancement methods, learner-centered
education, technology-enhanced learning environments, human
relations leadership training, etc. Simultaneously, scientific
disciplines were influenced by this perspective in less obvious
ways. Hence, the major contribution of this book is to identify and
characterize the key bridges-so far only partly recognized- between
the PCA and several other disciplines. Based on the results of the
bridge-building endeavor, the editors will propose an initial
formulation of the PCA as a meta-theory. It is intended as a
generic framework to solve complex, social problems and to
stimulate further research and development concerning the human
species in relationship to its environment.
