Dialogical and Individual-centered Approach to Psychotherapy

This manuscript compares dialogical therapy, which is based on Buber's philosophy, with individual-centered approach(PCA) to therapy, which is based on Rogers's theory of therapeutic relationships. From the comparison between them, it supposes that Dialogical psychotherapy and PCA represent two different branches with dilyerences mainly in their theoretical framework but with similafmes in their therapeutic practice. Finally discussed are their relation to postmodern thought and constructivist principles and the possibilities for their complementary implementation are discussed here.
