Theory and Practice of Counseling andPsychotherapy
Ninth Edition: Chapter 2 The Counselor:
Person and Professional
The Effective Counselor - ANS-The most important instrument you have is YOU
Your living example of who you are and how you struggle to live up to your potential is
powerful. Be authentic! The stereotyped, professional role can be shed. If you hide
behind your role the client will also hide. Be a therapeutic person. Be willing to grow,
risk, care, and be involved.
Research on Psychotherapy Outcomes - ANS-Abundant research indicates the
centrality of the person of the therapist and therapeutic relationship as key factors in
successful therapy. The contextual factors, not techniques, are the primary
determinants of therapeutic outcome.
Counseling for the Counselor - ANS-Can help you explore your motivations for being a
counselor, countertransference, and other issues that are triggered by clinical work.
Research shows that it is important to counselors' personal and professional
development. If we are not committed personally to the value of examining life, how can
we inspire clients to examine their lives?
The Counselor's Values - ANS-Avoid value imposition. Recognize that you are not
value-neutral. Assist clients in creating goals and finding answers that are most
congruent with their own values. Find ways to manage value conflicts between you and
your clients.
Becoming Multiculturally Competent - ANS-Become aware of your biases and values.
Become aware of your own cultural norms and expectations. Attempt to understand the
world from your client's vantage point. Gain a knowledge of the dynamics of oppression,
racism, discrimination, and stereotyping. Study the historical background, traditions, and
values of your client and be open to learning from him/her. Expand your vantage point
to explore your client's ways of life that are different from your own. Develop an
awareness of acculturation strategies.
