(On-demand session released) Person-Centered Care & Information Dense Environments

The Rogerian person-centered therapy has found its usefulness in career development spaces. However, practising active listening is challenging in information-dense environments. We aim to tackle two such scenarios: career development workshops and one-on-one appointments where CD practitioners are expected to provide core information for their clients to thrive in their careers while simultaneously maintaining a care-filled, empathetic space.

Learning Outcomes:
  • Applying a person-centered approach in information-dense environments
  • Understanding diverse clients' needs and providing accurate and necessary support
  • Applying active listening in both workshops and one-on-one appointments
