German term or phrase: Gesprächspsychotherapie
Rather confused about what the direct translation of this term is in English.

There appear to be many differing kinds of psychotherapy.

Thanks in advance.

person-centered therapy
Explanation:
Carl Ransom Rogers (January 8, 1902 – February 4, 1987) was an influential American psychologist, who, along with Abraham Maslow, was the founder of the humanist approach to psychology. He was also instrumental in the development of non-directive psychotherapy, which he initially termed Client-centered therapy. He later renamed it as the Person-centered approach (PCA) to reflect that his theories were meant to apply to all interactions between people, not just to those between therapist and client. Today PCA is also called Person-centered psychotherapy and has been applied in group settings.
