Chapter 5: Person-Centered Therapy video blog

Video Title: Nonjudgmental Listening Cycle and Goal Setting

The woman in this video appears to have developed a self-concept of a over-responsible, creature of habit/dislike of unanticipated events type of person. Apart of this is thinking far and hard into changes and decisions which sometimes leads to unnecessary anxiety. This may be an aspect of herself she devalues so her ideal-self may not include this aspect of herself. Her trip to Africa for professional development seems to fit right into the main part of the theory for humans desire to grow to their full potential. The experiences and activities she is pursuing abroad will add to her skills and experiences leading to new growth.
