“…(DeRobertis, 2013). Additionally, it should be noted that humanistic psychology has seen a revival of spirituality in the form of what might be termed postsecular humanism , existential–humanistic psychology has made strides in the psychotherapy integration movement (see Schneider, 2016), and there have been timely advances in humanistic multicultural psychology (see DeRobertis, 2015, 2017; DeRobertis & Bland, 2020; Hoffman, 2016) as well as path-finding applications in political and social psychology (see Schneider, 2020).…”

This article presents a textual analysis of the inaugural issue of the Journal of Humanistic Psychology. The analysis culminated in the creation of a composite narrative that expresses the character of the humanistic vision for psychological science, a historical snapshot of the evolving humanistic revolution circa 1961. The analysis showed humanistic psychology to have proposed a nonreactionary, inclusive, integrative approach to psychology. This approach was anchored in a radicalized image of humanity, one that would not rely wholly on theories and methods of research designed for nonhuman beings. The findings further indicate that, from its inception, humanistic psychology was envisioned to be a unique amalgam of what would today be considered cultural psychology, cognitive psychology, and developmental psychology, without being reducible to any one of these subfields. It was and remains an effort in earnest to do justice to a truer self, engaged in the process of becoming, operating within biological and cultural parameters.

Existential–Humanistic Therapy and Disaster Response: Lessons From the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected the mental health field. The unique distress caused by the pandemic along with the need for many to transition their therapy practices to TeleHealth/Telepsychology modalities caught many therapists, including existential–humanistic therapists, unprepared to make the necessary adjustments to treat clients in a manner that is safe and effective. Existential–humanistic therapy often is neglected with trauma and disaster relief work, despite its relevancy and important contributions. All therapies must adjust in crisis situations, particularly when adjustments to how services are offered are disrupted; however, the impact of these changes varies by therapeutic orientation. As an approach that values genuineness, empathy, and presence, existential–humanistic therapy faces unique challenges when employed with disaster response. However, when these challenges are faced, existential–humanistic therapy has much to offer disaster response, including consideration of existential guilt, existential shattering, existential anxiety, and existential perspectives on self-care.

“…Arguably, humanist therapeutic approaches have provided the most fully realized theory regarding human growth tendencies. Under its multifaceted umbrella, a host of different humanistic models of psychotherapy have been developed that are foundational for the fostering of client self‐exploration and personal growth in counseling and psychotherapy, including existential‐integrative psychotherapy (Schneider, 2016). Person‐centered therapy, now considered a founding work in the humanistic school of psychotherapies, is considered to enhance both therapist's and clients' personal growth and posits that the qualities of the therapists and the therapeutic relationship are the most powerful tools to enhance clients' personal growth (Cheng, 2019).…”

Objective: This paper reports on a focus-group discussion of four expert psychotherapy researchers facilitated at an international conference from the Society of Psychotherapy Research. A discussion was facilitated to explore their perspectives on psychotherapy practices of personal growth (intentionally working towards a strengthened sense of autonomy, mastery, and self-acceptance) in different countries (United States, Canada, Argentina, and Chile) and different modalities (psychoanalysis, humanistic therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy). Methods: Following the conference, the audio recording of this discussion was transcribed and analyzed using consensual qualitative research methods. Results. Six domains were identified; definition of personal growth, mental health care systems, psychotherapy practice, psychotherapy research, client and therapist characteristics, and social stigma. Results: Six domains were identified; definition of personal growth, mental health care systems, psychotherapy practice, psychotherapy research, client and therapist characteristics, and social stigma.Conclusion: Future research examining the costeffectiveness and benefits of psychotherapy for personal growth is warranted. Building on the six domains, specific future research projects on the evidence-based practice of psychotherapy for personal growth are suggested.
