| Abstract | Theoretical support and a rationale is offered for extending person-centred practice into social domains in order to promote a sense of social inclusion. This strategy is called 'person-centred sociotherapy'. It is argued that mental and emotional distress has social and environmental causes and that person-centred sociotherapy prevents or at least mitigates the ill-effects induced by these. The roots of emotional and mental distress and social disharmony and the medical, economic and psychological evidence for the value of promoting 'happiness' and 'kindness' are examined. Finally, some examples of sociotherapy in action are given. |
