Therapy approach
Humanistic therapy places the person's lived experience, values and capacity for growth at the centre of the work. The therapist aims to offer empathy, honesty and acceptance so the client can explore feelings without being judged or reduced to a diagnosis. Greater self-understanding and self-acceptance can support more confident, meaningful choices.
