Gautama was a spoilt kid
I have often wondered how to what extent things which are good for one person can be generalised to others. For example Gautama (the Buddha ) gave some advice to others as to how they could overcome suffering. Well ok it worked for him but then he was a spoilt prince who had a wake up call when he encountered suffering in the world. Why should it be assumed that his way and methods should be appropriate for say an abused kid or even an abused kid who was later on in life spoilt.

Carl Rogers
Carl Rogers was and still is a major influence. He developed what is called person centred therapy. Simply it means don't make interpretations and accept what the client says.
It means sit there and don't do much.
