There is a sense in which trying to separate one area of therapeutic work from another can feel quite artificial. On the other hand, I appreciate that if you are suffering in a particular way it might be helpful to know whether or not a therapist can help with that particular experience. Person-centred therapists can help with the following experiences (as well as others that are not listed here):
- anxiety
- depression
- personal development
- self-harm
- suicidality
- trauma and PTSD
- anger
- stress
- feelings around addiction
- bereavement and grief
- experiences of discrimination and oppression
- exploration of sexuality and coming out
- exploration of gender identity
- relationship difficulty
- loneliness
- feelings of being lost or uncertain
- self-awareness and self-development
- death and mortality
- spirituality
