She is particularly concerned with Epistemology, philosophy and principles issues of structural power and especially that attaching to the role of therapist. Power in therapy is also the focus of some of the chapters in Proctor et al. (2006) and consideration in many of them (see, for example, Proctor 2006: 66–79). 21 7 THE ISSUE OF THE COMPATIBILITY OF USING TECHNIQUES IN A PERSON-CENTRED FRAMEWORK IS UNRESOLVED AND CONTENTIOUS Because it is seen as to conflict with the principle of non-directivity (Point 5) and involve the exertion of power by the therapist (Point 6), the use of techniques within person-centred therapy is, to say the least, contentious.
This is clearly indicated by the first two of Rogers’ (1951: 483–484) propositions: 1. Every individual exists in a continually changing world of experience of which he is the center. 2. The organism reacts to the field as it is experienced and perceived. The perceptual field is, for the individual, ‘reality’. Cooper and Bohart (2013: 102–117) explore the experiential and phenomenological foundations of person-centred therapy including: • Rogers’ emphasis on experiencing as the essence of human being; • the phenomenological foundations of this experiential perspective; • the nature of experiencing.
However, the ‘techniques’ of (for example) person-centred expressive therapists, person-centred art therapists and perhaps even person-centred psychodramatists can be viewed as those of communication and/or exploration, not interpretation. For example, Natalie Rogers (Rogers 2013: 239) argues that expressive arts enhances the therapeutic relationship in many ways because it enables a variety of internal processes. There is an argument to be made that the implicit direction of the classic client-centred therapist ‘talk to me’ is in reality no different from the ‘direction’ of the person-centred expressive therapist ‘dance with me’ or ‘draw with me’.
