The historical origin of psychological counselors;
The historical origin of psychological counselors can be traced back to ancient times. In ancient society, people's ways to deal with psychological problems and mental troubles were mainly solved through religion, philosophy and traditional mysticism practice.

The origin of formal psychological counseling can be traced back to the early 20th century. During this period, psychology gradually developed into an independent discipline, and psychologists began to study people's thinking, emotion and behavior, and began to apply these research results to clinic.
In the mid-20th century, the career development of psychological counselors entered a new stage. With the continuous development of psychology, more and more psychological counseling methods and techniques are created and applied to clinical counseling practice, which provides more choices and help for individuals to solve psychological problems and improve their psychological state.
