Q
Principles of Counseling
A
Each client must be accepted as an individual and dealt with as such (the counselor does not necessarily approve of all behavior, but still accepts the client as a person).
Counseling is basically a permissive relationship; that is, the individual has permission to say what they please without being reprimanded or judged.
Counseling emphasizes thinking with; not for the individual.
All decision-making rests with the client.
Counseling is centered on the difficulties of the client.
Counseling is a learning situation which eventually results in a behavioral change.
Effectiveness in counseling depends largely on the readiness of the client to make changes and the therapeutic relationship with the counselor.
The counseling relationship is confidential.
