Counseling
Guidance Counseling
Guidance is mainly preventive and
developmental
Counseling is remedial as well as
preventive and developmental
it can be done for an individual as well
as for a group
it is done to one individual at a time
Intellectual attitudes are the raw
material of guidance
emotional as well as intellectual
attitude are the raw materials of
counselling
it is broader & Comprehensive It is in-depth & narrow
it is more external, helps a person to
understand alternative solutions
available to him & makes him
understand his personality and choose
the right solution
it helps person understand himself &is
an inward analysis. Alternative
solutions are proposed to help
understand the problem at hand.

solve his problem due to lack of
information

by informing, explaining, interpreting and
advising

aspect rather than emotional aspect.

• Reverse to that of directive counselling
• Permissive Counselling
• Emotional elements are stressed rather
than intellectual aspect
• main role of counselor is just to create an
atmosphere in whilient can work out his
problem
• methodology is indirect
26. Eclectic Counseling
• it is a type of counseling which is neither
counselor centred nor client centred, but a
combination of both.

directive counseling nor too passive as in
non-directive counseling, but follows a
middle path.
