The forms of consultation are: telephone consultation, face-to-face consultation, thematic consultation and online consultation. One of the most important and effective methods is face-to-face consultation. Face-to-face consultation is a direct way of interpersonal communication, usually in a physical place, such as a conference room, an office or a special consulting institution. The following is a general introduction to face-to-face consultation:
1. Counselor and client face-to-face: In face-to-face consultation, counselor and client can communicate face-to-face directly, which is helpful to build trust and emotional connection.
2. Real-time nonverbal communication: Through face-to-face communication, both sides can observe each other's nonverbal expressions, including facial expressions, gestures, eyes, etc., which can provide more comprehensive information and understanding.
3. More in-depth communication: Face-to-face consultation provides a more private and safer environment, which makes it easier for the parties to open their hearts and share their personal problems and troubles, and the consultant can better understand and analyze the situation.
4. Immediate feedback and adjustment: In face-to-face consultation, the consultant can give immediate feedback and make adjustments according to the reaction of the parties to help them better explore problems and think about solutions.
5. Face-to-face support and comfort: When clients face challenges, pains or emotional troubles, consultants can provide support, comfort and encouragement through face-to-face interaction to help them face problems and find solutions.
Face-to-face consultation is effective and beneficial in many cases, but some limitations should also be considered, such as geographical distance, time arrangement and privacy protection. The development of modern technology also provides the choice of online consultation, which can make up for the limitations of face-to-face consultation to some extent.

1. Telephone consultation: Telephone consultation is a remote consultation method by telephone. Counselors and clients can communicate by telephone, discuss problems, share troubles and seek advice. Telephone consultation is flexible, easy to arrange at any time, and can provide anonymity and privacy to some extent.

Psychological counselors have professional knowledge and experience in specific fields, and provide relevant guidance and support for clients, such as marriage and family counseling, career planning counseling, and mental health counseling.
