,Definition of Counselling
• According to Halm and Mchean (1955)
"Counselling is a one to one relationship between
an individual troubled by problems with which he
cannot cope alone and a professional worker
whose training and experience have qualified him
to help others reach solutions to various types of
personal difficulties".
• Smith (1955) defines "Counselling is a process in
which the counsellor assists the counselling to
make interpretations of facts relating to a choice
plan or adjustments which he needs to make"
• According to Stefflre (1970) "Counselling is a
learning-teaching process".

Counselling
,Principles of Counselling
Counselling is based on n number of principles. These
principles are:
1. Counselling is a process. It is necessary for the
counsellor to understand that counselling is a process
and a slow process. Failure to understand this will
result in annoyance and disappointment.
2. Counselling is for all. Especially in the school
situation counselling is mean for all the students and
not only for those who are facing problems or other
exceptional students.
3. Counselling is based on certain fundamental
assumptions.
a) Every individual in this world is capable of
taking responsibilities for him/herself.
b) Every individual has a right to choose his/her
own path, based on the principles of democracy.
,4. Counsellor does not deprive the right of self-
choice but simply facilitate choice. The
counsellor should give due respect to the individual
and accept him/herself as he/she is.
5. Counselling is not advice giving.
6. Counselling is not thinking for the client, but
thinking with the client. Counselling is for enabling
the client to do judicious thinking.
7. Counselling is not problem solving. The counsellor
simply assists the person to find solution on his/her
own.
8. Counselling is not interviewing but conversing with
the client in order to help him/her to develop self-
understanding,
,9. The counsellor should determine individual
differences and provide for them.
10. The counsellor has to prepare the client to open to
criticism including self-criticism.
11. The counsellor acts as a facilitator or catalyst only.
He creates an atmosphere which is permissive and
non-threatening, through his warm and accepting
relationship with the client
