The humanistic intervention uses, mainly, the methods taken from individual and group humanistic psychotherapy, the humanistic-existential, humanistic-contextual and humanistic-appreciative methods - mostly oriented towards change, through the human and cultural development/ empowerment of the persons and community, the central ideal, aim, objective being the achievement of autonomy, of the person/ client and community. Throughout the process of intervention - with purpose of change - the humane/ humanistic knowledge, qualities and conducts of the community social worker have a crucial role.
