ABSTRACT
Person-centred therapy has been evolved by reflecting on experience, research and a pragmatic approach to problem-solving. It is this that led (and leads) to the development of theory, practice and service provision. This started with Rogers (who in their account of his ground-breaking contributions to psychotherapy research, Elliott and Farber (2010) refer to as an idealistic pragmatist and a pioneer of psychotherapy research) and continues to the present time. Person-centred therapy is an advancing and dynamic approach responsive to the needs of people (individuals, groups and perhaps even nations) in the twenty-first century. What follows is a summary of some of the ongoing developments in person-centred therapy and the person-centred approach as a whole.
