Counselor is a widely known and used term in our surroundings and throughout social media, primarily due to people’s awareness about mental health and the current pandemic that has pretty much devastated our mental health. A counselor is someone who is trained to listen to people and give them advice about their problems. He/she helps address the difficulties confidentially by acknowledging and clarifying an individual’s issues, develops strategy across it, and builds self-confidence and self-engagement. Dhaka being the highly populated central city of Bangladesh, the consciousness related to mental health is enormous compared to inhabitants of other cities. Hence, the demand for counselors in Bangladesh is evidently massive. People usually visit counselors in Bangladesh for different psychological issues, marriage problems, couple counseling, student counselling, etc. Counselling services have increased a lot of following people’s awareness to solve and negotiate a healthy living, and hence counselors are the first option to look for since they have the proper professional training for the specific dispute. Psychological counselors in Bangladesh are usually affiliated with specific hospitals; however, some have their independent chambers to counsel and provide therapies to their clients. With the increased complexities of the urban Dhaka life, people will be requiring professional counselling, trained support at some point in life. Nevertheless, a lot of the Dhaka population still needs to build that faith and trust in counselors.
