The official birth of counselling psychology is said to have
occurred in 1951, when key United States leaders in what was then
called the field of guidance and counselling formally adopted the
terms 'counselling psychologist' and 'counselling psychology' to
describe their profession. In the 65 years that have followed,
counselling psychology has thrived, as reflected in the fact that
it now is a recognized applied psychology specialty in a number of
countries worldwide. The form and expression of counselling
psychology differs across countries and yet the specialty retains
certain recognizable features wherever it is practiced. Drawing on
data collected through a survey of professionals in eight different
countries, this volume considers both ways in which the specialty
is distinctive within each of the eight countries, as well as that
which is characteristic of counselling psychology across them all.
This survey of the international character of counselling
psychology examines the emergence and the history of the field; the
training, preparation and credentialing of professionals; and the
practices and practice settings of counselling psychologists. This
book was originally published as a special issue of Counselling
Psychology Quarterly.
