La vocación no directiva de Carl Rogers: teoría, psicoterapia y relaciones de poder

In this article we offer a brief presentation and critical review of some of the most important ideas in the thought of Carl Rogers in relation to his conception and practice of psychotherapy. Through an interpretative exercise supported by the premises of critical psychology, but with no pretension of stating absolute affirmations, it questions several postulates of the Rogerian perspective in its historical-theoretical context and its consubstantial linkage to the relations of power that are assumed and reproduced in its development. In addition, it discusses the exercise of psychologization present in the Rogerian apparatus, its political character, and its tendency towards an acritical harmonization of social relations.
