One of the Transformative Counselling Encounters students came across the statement “Can I as a psychological counsellor survive on my own in the ‘jungle’ out there?” when she was reading her study guide. This statement perturbed her a bit and she phoned one of the lecturers to discuss her encounter. In their discussion, she discovered that there are quite several tools for survival for psychological counsellors which will essentially help them to survive in the ‘jungle’ and only a few of them are listed below:
(i) Familiarising yourself with the scope of practice of professional counsellors as opposed to lay counsellors to find out where you fit in.
(ii) Ascertaining when, where, and how to refer cases which are beyond your scope of practice.
(iii) Sourcing out supervision from an experienced and supportive supervisor who will guide you through your learning process.
(iv) Liaising with colleagues and discussing issues over a cup of tea.
Which of the above conditions do you think would help her to survive?
