On Becoming a Person by Carl R. Rogers

4.0

Such a gentle and thoughtful approach to both therapy and interpersonal relationships in general. Some of the chapters were less relevant than others but his thoughts on the major lessons learned in his career (namely, self acceptance and being your honest self in all settings) was profoundly insightful. I also really appreciated his thoughts on the general trends of how people improve over time in therapy - through relationship, self-directed and towards self-acceptance and an internal set of values and locus of self-evaluation.
