title: Implications of client-centred counselling for nursing practice.
abstract: The idea that counselling should be incorporated into nursing has been discussed widely in nursing literature. The type of counselling that is most often recommended is 'client-centred'. This term refers to a specific style of counselling based on a particular view of people. This paper explores the concept of client-centred counselling and argues that the client-centred approach to counselling is both limited and limiting.
