Abstract

The emergence of the themes suggests that the Malay clients in the study did move in the direction of personal growth and maturity in the non-directive, egalitarian person-centred counselling. The flow of emotion experienced by clients indicated that, in the safe climate of person-centred counselling, where the client' positive and negative feelings were accepted and understood accurately by the counsellor, a tremendous sense of relief and comfort were felt by the client, as found by Watson (2002).
