Expressing yourself to your Counselor

What Counselling is not!!
-Giving advice.
-Being judgmental.
-Expecting or encouraging a client to behave as the counselor would behave if confronted with a similar problem in their own life.
-Getting emotionally involved with the client.
-Looking at a client’s problems from their own perspective, based on their own value system.
-Advising them to do certain religious rituals as a solution.
At some point in their lives, many people will find themselves in the role of a counselor without having a true understanding of the concept of counseling or what the role of the professional counselor entails. There is a big difference between a professional counselor and a person who uses some counseling skills as part of their role, for example as a friend or colleague. A professional counselor is a highly-trained individual who is able to use a different range of counseling approaches with their clients.
