About this deal

Roger’s did note the inadequacy of language while also emphasising the value of the process fluidity. p.158) states “volition is simply the subjective following of harmonious balance of organismic direction” there is a risk of reading this as contradiction.

Rogers suggested that the incongruent individual, who is always on the defensive and cannot be open to all experiences, is not functioning ideally and may even be malfunctioning. The Seven Stages are only a formulation to provide structure to a concept of a change 'processing' which is inherently intangible and fluid which is understood through abstract inferences from Roger’s naturalist observational approach. Conversely, when you're taking good care of yourself (both your physical and mental health), you can be more thoughtfully engaged with whatever comes, use the resources you have in your life, and grow from the challenges you face, rather than merely surviving them. However, taking into account the whole range of stages (from fixity to flow) as well as the fundamental principles that the client is an active agent in their process of change; it could be stated more clearly for the reader that the choice in the volition stated above is choosing not to inhibit oneself from experiencing the cues that the integrated organism is experiencing. There is slightly less rigidity, with a small movement towards wondering whether responsibility should be taken by self, but not actually doing so: ‘It’s not my fault; it’s theirs – isn’t it?

There are no direct interventions that can be made or should be made in an attempt to move the client from one stage to the next to speed up the process.

Oak towards herself and others’ experiences at the final stages of the change process is “neither punishing nor rewarding” (Rogers, 1961. This theory provides a valuable common language with which to discuss clients in both supervision and case studies.p.88) and can keep progressing as the continuum emerges as it is an on-going climate the therapist provides (Rogers, 1961. Second, he draws in insights from more psychodynamic traditions of thinking (as did educators such as A. Oak as evidence that deeper than the hostility, which arises in therapy, is a self-preserving and socialised organism (Rogers 1961. Any experience that is inconsistent with the organization of the structure of the self may be perceived as a threat, and the more of these perceptions there are, the more rigidly the self structure is organized to maintain itself. From this diagram alone one would be forgiven if they interpreted as representing one state of fixity to a polarised opposite fixed state, however it is crudely meant to represent a continuum from fixity to an increasingly changing and flow-like way of experiencing one’s own organism.
