Carl Rogers, one of the preeminent psychologists of the 20th-century, is best known for creating what is known as client-centered therapy, a nondirective approach that places the client in control of the therapeutic process.

As one of the leaders of the humanist movement in psychology, Rogers believed that people were essentially good and healthy. This differed greatly from the psychoanalytic focus on abnormal behavior. You can learn more about his views on psychology through quotations from his many writings.
