Strengthening student counsellors' resolve.

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to provide some background, history, and rationale for a process framework that provides robust, effective, and integrated scaffolding in which to situate counselling practice for student counsellors. Reflecting on experience as a counsellor, supervisor, and counsellor educator in two tertiary institutions in Aotearoa New Zealand, and on feedback from student counsellors and supervisees, the author reviews examples of process frameworks for counselling that have their origins in Aotearoa. Two possibilities are identified, and it is suggested that the structure of the hui is mirrored in these two frameworks. One example is highlighted as a way of synthesising the benefits of all three approaches for both counselling practice and counsellor education.
