Abstract:

Human Givens Therapy (HGT), which is a short-term therapy with an individual-oriented, eclectic and integrative style, in which the therapy process is structured in line with the needs of the individual. At the same time, it is one of the therapies approaches that stand out abroad in the context of new and short-term approaches. With this study, it is aimed to evaluate the research involving HGT practices and to present a framework for HGT in the literature. Searches for the last 10 years were made with “human givens therapy”, hu-man givens approach” and “human givens” keywords on Google Scholars and databases. English or Turkish full-text PDF format articles in the fields of psychology/psychological counseling, where these keywords are mentioned and content is related, were selected. 9 articles were accessed in line with the articles content and article titles. Due to the lack of studies on this approach in Turkey, this research is the first study in Turkey in which HGT is introduced and discussed.
