This article rebuts ed kahn's views of person - centered psychotherapy in his journal of humanistic psychology aticle " a critique of non directivity in the person -centered approach" published in fall 1999. Kahn's arguments are shown to be based on distortions and misunderstandings. The article shows that person - centered psychotherapists recognize the influence and thus "directivity" of all therapy and that non directivity in client - centered therapy refers to the therapist's attitude and not techniques. Kahn's idea of a "one - person psychology" contradicts client - centered theory, and the basis for non directivity in roger's theory is discussed. The article discusses a range of responses in client - centered work and shows the psychoanalytical premises in kahn's critique to be irrelevant to client - centered non directivity. It discusses the humility of the therapist in relying on clients' perceptions of their experiences and meanings as the basis for understanding. A segment from a person - centered session is presented as an illustration of non directive process.
