Counseling 2.0 \u2013 The Future of Counseling<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

By Michelle E. Wade, Ed.D., L.C.P.C., L.P.C., N.C.C., A.C.S.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The American Counseling Association (ACA) (Kaplan, Tarvydas, & Gladding, 2013) defines counseling as \u201ca professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals\u201d (p. 2). In the 21st<\/sup> century, the way that professional relationship is established is no longer necessarily depicted as a client in the opposite chair from the counselor. Rather, counseling can now be conducted over vast distances and the counselor-client relationship can be developed and maintained outside of the therapy room.<\/p>\n

Counselors are taught from the very beginning of training that the therapeutic relationship between counselor and client is paramount and as such the relationship needs to be developed and nurtured (Wampold, Duncan, & Miller, 2009). Lambert and Barley (2001) report that thirty percent (30%) of beneficial counseling outcomes can be attributed to the professional relationship. Fluckiger, Del Re, Wampold, Symonds, and Horvath (2011) explicate the alliance-outcome relationship has a greater correlational link greater than any other treatment variable studied. Therefore, if the relationship is paramount, one has to ask whether counseling should venture into this brave new frontier with clients.<\/p>\n
