In this episode, we delve into the concept of post-traumatic growth through a person-centered lens. Heena Khan provides insights into how post-traumatic growth is understood and facilitated within the framework of person-centered approach.
We explore the foundational ideas of post-traumatic growth (PTG), coined by Richard Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun in the 1990s, which describes the positive changes that can emerge following adversity. Heena discusses the three main domains of positive change: relationships, self-perception, and worldview.
Drawing parallels between Carl Rogers' concept of the fully functioning person and post-traumatic growth, Heena explains how intrinsic motivation and the drive towards congruence play crucial roles in healing from trauma. The episode also highlights the Organismic Valuing Process theory and its three key tenets related to growth following adversity.
Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how to foster post-traumatic growth in your clients using the principles of person-centered therapy. For additional resources, upcoming CEUs, and membership information on The Therapist Café, check the show notes.
