    Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), also known as Client-Centered Therapy, was developed by Carl Rogers in the mid-20th century. It is one of the most influential and humanistic approaches to psychotherapy, focusing on the intrinsic potential for growth within each individual. At its core, PCT is rooted in the belief that every person has the capacity for self-understanding and self-direction, given the right environment. The therapeutic relationship is not one of authority or expertise; instead, it is based on mutual respect and understanding. This approach emphasizes the client's subjective experience as the most important aspect of therapy, with the therapist acting as a facilitator of the client's self-exploration and personal growth. 
    Carl Rogers was a pioneering figure in the field of psychology, advocating for a shift away from the more directive methods that were common at the time. His emphasis on empathy, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard—three foundational components of PCT—marks a departure from the idea that therapists should control the process of healing. Instead, Rogers proposed that when individuals feel truly heard, understood, and accepted by another person, they are able to engage in meaningful self-exploration that leads to change. This trust in the client’s own ability to navigate their struggles forms the bedrock of Person-Centered Therapy. 
    The essence of Person-Centered Therapy lies in the relationship between the client and therapist. Rather than focusing on diagnosing and treating specific problems, the therapy process is more holistic. It invites clients to explore their feelings, experiences, and sense of self in a supportive and nonjudgmental space.

    Are you constantly worrying about your health, or the health of a loved one? Do you frequently check yourself for lumps, bumps, tingling, or pain? Do you find yourself endlessly looking up symptoms on the internet? Perhaps you find yourself asking others for reassurance or validation that you’re okay, obsessing over health scares in the media, or monitoring your blood pressure on an hourly basis? No matter how your health anxiety manifests, it can be a crippling psychological burden. Endlessly ruminating about illness and death can affect all aspects of life—at home, work, school, as well as the doctor’s office. 
     
     
     
    In Freedom from Health Anxiety, nationally recognized anxiety expert Karen Lynn Cassiday teaches you skills to conquer health anxiety, once and for all. You'll learn to switch from focusing on worst-case scenarios to appreciating the joy of the present moment—regardless of  health status. Using a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), positive psychology, and the author's "learned inhibition" model, you'll finally acquire the tools you need to take charge of your fear and break the cycle of stressing over your—or your loved one's—well-being. You'll also learn effective methods for tolerating health uncertainty, getting in touch with your body's cues, and rediscovering the pleasure of the present.
