The essence of person centered counseling is the belief that, given the time and space to do so, the individual will find their own solutions (Rowan, 1988). The role of the Counselor is to facilitate the individual’s personal growth through being “genuinely there” for the individual, by holding the individual in unconditional positive regard and through empathetic understanding established through active listening (Rogers, 1961) The benefit of the use of this model in coaching is that it informs the way the coach listens empathetically and without judgement to enhance the individuals awareness and to help them to find their own solutions.
