Vega of Granada

The area west of Granada was once a crucial frontier between the Moorish kingdom of Granada and the Christian territory.

Person-centred-humanistic Counselling

Person-centred counselling is one of several types of humanistic psychology. It was pioneered by Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow, who rejected traditional psychoanalytical approaches, which simplified humans into types of behaviour. Instead Rogers and Maslow saw humans as complete beings in a constant process of change, striving to fulfil their potential.
