From the Foreword `It is an honour to be asked to write a foreword for this new book by Michael McMillan. I have been excited about this book ever since I read early drafts of its first two chapters some time ago at the birth of the project. At different times thereafter I have read other parts and my consistent impression has been that this is an author who has both a sophisticated academic understanding of the material and a great skill in communicating that widely. Those two qualities do not often go together! - Dave Mearns, Strathclyde University The notion that a client changes during the process of counselling is one of the most fundamental assumptions underpinning the profession, and whilst schools of thought differ in explaining how this change occurs, all agree that some kind of transition does occur. The Person-Centred Approach to Therapeutic Change considers the process of change within the counselling relationship from the person-centred perspective. Integral to the person-centred approach is Carl Rogers radical view that change is best conceptualized as an ongoing process rather than an alteration from one fixed state to another, and that psychological health is best achieved by the person who is able to be in a state of continual change. Such a person is open to all experiences and is therefore able to assimilate new experiences, whether good or bad , and adapt to them as a result. The Person-Centred Approach to Therapeutic Change describes how the person-centred counselling relationship can create an environment where the client can open themselves up to experiences that they have previously found difficult to acknowledge and move forward to the possibility of change. The Person-Centred Approach to Therapeutic Change outlines the main theoretical corner stones of the person-centred approach and then, applying these, describes why change occurs as a result of a person-centred therapeutic encounter. The book also discusses challenges faced by clients when living in such openness to experience.
