Abstract

Researchers from the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand, have conducted a study on the identity formation of counsellors-in-training in the field of Guidance and Counselling. The research explores the transition from humanistic understandings of identity to a posthuman framework, emphasizing the complex and dynamic processes involved in becoming a counsellor. This peer-reviewed study suggests a reconceptualization of 'becoming-counsellor' as entangled and iterative, taking into account various influences on counsellor identities. For more information, the full article can be accessed in the British Journal of Guidance & Counselling. [Extracted from the article]
