Abstract
Shame is a key emotion requiring understanding in therapeutic practice, not only from the perspective of a client but also from that of a practitioner, because shame may be outside of awareness manifesting itself in different ways, affecting behaviour and therapy work. This study explored shame as understood and experienced by person-centred counsellors and psychotherapists. Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with five person-centred therapists and data analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) with two key themes identified: Framing Shame and Transforming Shame. This paper considers these themes through the lens of person-centred theory, exploring implications for psychotherapy practice, whilst recognising the importance of understanding this master emotion.
