Workshop Details
Impenetrable. Abstract. Irrelevant.
In my role as a trainer, I’ve often heard these claims directed at Carl Rogers’ 19 Propositions (1951), yet, and clickbait parody aside, I sincerely argue that there are clear and obvious benefits for you in engaging with these foundational aspects of the Person-Centred Approach (PCA).
My aim over this workshop is to demystify and explore with you five key aspects of the Nineteen through large and small group discussion, with a clear emphasis on linking these concepts to your own day-to-day counselling practice.
As such, this workshop may appeal to:
- PCA therapists looking to integrate the Propositions into their everyday work
- PCA trainers looking to refine their engagement with and delivery of theory
- Anyone interested in connecting with the core philosophy of the PCA in a non-psychobabbling, accessible manner

Course Content
Presenter
Jonno is Director of Training at Counselling Training the Midlands, a Nottingham-based Person-Centred training organisation.
He’s delivered counselling training, conference speeches and CPD nationally and internationally, and as a theory nerd his research interests include the core, clinical philosophy of the Person-Centred Approach as well as how multidisciplinarity across the natural and social sciences can inform counselling training and practice.
On a more personal note, he was once hit by lightning, and has swum in both polar regions. He would definitely recommend the latter over the former.
