ABSTRACT

In Carl Rogers’ written work schizophrenia and psychotic symptoms are mentioned over 2300 times. The use of the terms reflects the theoretical background prevailing at the time as well as the practical experience of Carl Rogers. Over the course of the publications a change in access to psychotic phenomena can be observed. In early years, Rogers viewed psychosis as fundamentally different from neurotic or ‘normal’ conditions. He emphasizes the inability of psychotherapy to treat psychosis. This perspective changes with the theoretical development of the person-centered approach. The concept of the dichotomy of neurosis and psychosis is rejected. Rogers is increasingly distancing himself from diagnostic labeling. He succeeds in presenting psychosis as an understandable process and thereby making it accessible to psychotherapy. The description of possible dangers in the therapeutic relationship are initially emphasized, but are losing importance in favor of a strong sense of confidence in the possibilities of the person-centered approach.

摘要

在卡尔·罗杰斯的书面著作中，精神分裂症和精神病性症状被提及超过2300次。这些术语的使用反映了当时盛行的理论背景以及卡尔·罗杰斯（Carl Rogers）的实践经验。在出版过程中，可以观察到精神病现象的获取途径发生了变化。早些年，罗杰斯（Rogers）认为精神病与神经病或“正常”疾病有着根本的不同。他强调心理治疗无法治疗精神病。这种观点随着以人为中心的方法的理论发展而改变。神经症和精神病二分法的概念被拒绝了。罗杰斯越来越远离诊断标签。他成功地将精神病介绍为一个可以理解的过程，从而使其可用于心理治疗。
