Carl Rogers developed the person-centered personality theory, which states that everyone strives to realize their full potential. According to Rogers, people's desire to realize their full potential is the primary motivation of humans. Based on this theory, Rogers also developed a new method of therapy that was non-directive and focused on the client as a person and their own ability to overcome their psychological barriers in a supportive and supportive environment. This method is called client-centered therapy (CCT). Alexandra Payne, Helen Liebling-Kalifani, and Stephen Joesph in their article “Client-Centered Group Therapy for Survivors of Interpersonal Trauma: A Pilot Investigation” (2007) discuss how Roger's person-centered theory is helpful in understanding the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). and the use of CCT as group treatment. The study by Payne et al. (2007) reveals that person-centered theory generates research and that approaching PTSD in this way broadens the individual view of person-centered theory. Despite the lack of research using CCT as a therapeutic method to treat PTSD and the study's issues regarding sample size, the application of Roger's theory is a useful tool for therapists. Payne et al. (2007) argue that although CCT has not been widely used or studied in the therapy literature for individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder, it can be a useful therapeutic tool (p. 100). The authors determined that CCT may be helpful to individuals with PTSD because of its basis in Roger's person-centered theory. Payne et al. (2007) note that, like other modes of therapy, CCT identifies the need for "some form of exposure", but does so without using "exposure-based exercises", unlike c. ..... middle of paper ...... Red therapy is still useful today and is not lost to modern psychology. The study conducted by Payne et al. (2007) shows that Rogers' theory and therapeutic methods can be used to understand and treat disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder. Viewing PTSD through a Rogerian lens may also broaden readers' understanding of person-centered theory and its ability to be applied to many different medical problems despite the refusal to label individuals. Although there is a lack of research regarding CCT and the alleviation of PTSD symptoms, this article is of great assistance to therapists seeking a non-directive approach and may be a source of inspiration for future research .
