Person-Centred Therapy: 100 Key Points begins by exploring the fundamental principles and philosophy that underpin person-centred therapy, followed by an in-depth discussion of the classic theory that forms the foundation of practice.

Key areas of discussion include:

• The model of the person, including the origins of mental and emotional distress
• The process of constructive change
• A review of revisions and advancements in person-centred theory
• Child development, processing styles, and configurations of self
• The quality of presence and working at relational depth

The book also addresses and rebuts criticisms of the approach, guiding readers toward broader person-centred literature. This makes it a valuable resource for students and scholars of person-centred therapy, as well as anyone interested in one of the major therapeutic modalities.
