Our Approach to Therapy

At Sacramento's Humanistic Counseling Collective, we see you as a whole person, not a list of symptoms to solve, not a diagnosis. The foundation of our approach is humanistic, person-centered therapy, grounded in three core principles:

​

  • Unconditional positive regard: You are worthy of respect and care exactly as you are.

  • Empathy: We work to truly understand your lived experience, not explain it away.

  • Genuineness: Your therapist shows up as a real human, not a distant expert behind a clipboard.

 

​As Dr. Carl Rogers wrote:

“People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don't find myself saying, ‘Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner.’ I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds.”

​

We believe the same about you: therapy work isn’t meant to control you, but to help you step into your truest, most authentic self.
