In view of the different views of the new and old generations of psychological counselors, Bian Xiao talked about whether it is necessary to go to the consulting room as a psychological counselor to do a case.
Xiaoling is a clinic that has just got a second-class certificate. A friend introduced a case to Xiaoling. Xiaoling was naturally very happy and took the initiative to make an appointment with the visitors. In order to save the cost of the venue, Xiaoling invited visitors to a cafe to start consulting.
The case was agreed to be done for an hour. During this one-hour consultation, Xiaoling and the visitors felt a little uncomfortable, especially at the beginning, just like netizens meeting. When it comes to visitors' consulting objectives, visitors appear stiff and often glance at guests at other tables when talking about their eyes.
At the end of an hour, Xiaoling felt that she didn't handle it well, but the visitor paid the fee politely and took the initiative to pay for the coffee ordered by two people. This visitor naturally didn't make an appointment for the next consultation.
For the case of Xiaoling's falling horse, there are some problems simply from the consulting environment.
First, case consultation needs a quiet and highly confidential environment.
Visitors will make an appointment for psychological counseling, which is a hurdle in their hearts. Even if you tell your family and friends around you, you can't get through this.
Because of inner setbacks and hardships, some people find it difficult to talk to acquaintances, so visitors seek psychological counseling because psychological counseling has the principle of confidentiality. At the same time, a teacher with consulting qualification is professional, who can understand him and help him turn the crisis in his heart into vitality. Relatively private space allows visitors and consultants to temporarily leave the daily "field".
Cafes, on the other hand, can't guarantee this kind of environment, especially when there are guests at the next table. It is difficult for visitors to open their hearts and express their inner pain.
Second, the environment for case consultation needs to be stable.
According to the setting, the consultant will make an appointment with the visitors for a regular consultation time every week. A certain period of time and familiar environment will make tourists feel more relaxed. If you choose an external shopping mall, such as a coffee shop, there is no guarantee that the location you choose can be used every time, and the environment will change every time you consult. This unstable consulting environment will also have a certain impact on the consulting effect.
Xiaoling asked, "What if I ask the case writer to do it? Family members can guarantee the above two points. " Bian Xiao believes that it is estimated that the situation will be worse.
First, the adverse impact on consultants.
Home is a safe haven for us to rest, which relieves our fatigue. On weekends, you can arrange to get together with friends and contact your feelings. If it is used to receive visitors and do cases, it will change the function of the home.
When a visitor wants to establish a relationship with a consultant other than the consultation-visit relationship, it is difficult for the consultant to deal with it at this time. Especially for crisis intervention cases, according to the basic consultation ideas, the counselor will tell the visitors that if they are too agitated and want to go to extremes, they can contact the counselor.
If it is done in a counselor's home, visitors will come to the door without an appointment, clamoring to end this meaningless life, which will not only make the counselor unprepared, but also sweat, and it will be extremely risky to deal with.
Second, functional defects.
1. Spatial layout
The consulting room dedicated to psychological counseling, taking into account the characteristics of its users, is mainly decorated and arranged with warm art, and is cleaned regularly by special personnel.
Consultants and visitors will feel neat, bright and comfortable when they enter the room. This quiet and peaceful atmosphere has important symbolic and suggestive significance for psychological counseling.
The counseling center also often holds psychological counseling supervision and psychological course salons, which have a strong academic atmosphere and can also nourish counselors.
2. Professional facilities
The counseling room of the counseling center has facilities such as sand table and hypnotic chair to assist psychological counseling. There are also vent people, vent walls and vent sticks used by tourists to relieve stress. This is not available in cafes and at home.
3. Uniqueness of identity
For counselors, the relationship with visitors needs to be unique. Then in the consultation center, the front desk will play the role of reception. After the tourists arrive, there will be a front desk to register and charge, and the pleasant service will make the tourists feel at home.
At the same time, it can maintain the uniqueness of the identity of the consultant.
Your concern, praise and reward are my greatest encouragement and praise.
