  Carl Rogers
From early in his career Rogers was a strong proponent of research, challenging psychological research based on the logical positivism of conventional science as not always appropriate for a human science, believing that such methods risked, for instance, depersonalization and dehumanization, the certainty of knowledge, and the myth of objectivity.
Rogers placed emphasis on the client’s right to select his own life goals, even though their goals may be at odds with the counselor’s goals for them, and on the client’s right to be psychologically independent and maintain psychological integrity (Rogers, 1951).
Rogers (1951) early on put forth the notion of therapist expertise as having social and philosophical implications that need careful consideration--seeing diagnosis, for instance, as partly a form of social control and as placing the locus of responsibility for treatment in the hands of the expert.

Rogers attempted to change the world of psychotherapy when he boldly claimed that psychoanalytic, experimental, and behavioral therapists were preventing their clients from ever reaching self-realization and self-growth due to their authoritive analysis.
Roger's found that this was best achieved through the method of "reflection", in which the therapist continually restates what the "patient" has said in an attempt to show complete acceptance and to allow the patient to recognize any negative feelings that they may be feeling.
Rogers began to use the expression "client" instead of "patient" due to the fact that the individuals that he was counseling did need help but not within the same regard that a medically ill person does.

 Personality & Consciousness - - Carl Rogers' Theory of Personality
Rogers concept of self-actualization is specifically related to the self and is thus different from Goldstein's use of the term (which matches the actualizing tendency) and also different from Maslow's which appears to incorporate both tendencies in one (Maddi, 1996).
Rogers' conception of an active forward thrust is a huge departure from the beliefs of Freud and others who posit an aim for tension reduction, equilibrium, or homeostasis (Krebs and Blackman, 1988; Maddi, 1996).
Rogers (1977) notes that sensory deprivation studies support this concept as the absence of external stimuli leads to a flood of internal stimuli, not equilibrium.
