Carl R. Rogers Quotes

The Third Facilitative Aspect Of The Relationship Is Empathic Understanding. This Means That The Therapist Senses Accurately The Feelings And Personal Meanings That The Client Is Experiencing And Communicates This Understanding To The Client. When Functioning Best, The Therapist Is So Much Inside The Private World Of The Other That He Or She Can Clarify Not Only The Meanings Of Which The Client Is Aware But Even Those Just Below The Level Of Awareness. This Kind Of Sensitive, Active Listening Is Exceedingly Rare In Our Lives. We Think We Listen, But Very Rarely Do We Listen With Real Understanding, True Empathy. Yet Listening, Of This Very Special Kind, Is One Of The Most Potent Forces For Change That I Know.
