They are responsible for the practice of their profession in accordance with their

counseling.

What Is It
From the previous activity, you have exhibited what you have in your mind
about the lesson. It is indeed a good start towards understanding the content of this
module. Through this, your knowledge will be enhanced by the succeeding
discussions and activities provided for you. So, let’s take a tour of the characteristics
and various needs of the different type of clientele and audiences in counseling.
Individuals and groups of people who receive service from various counseling
professions constitute the clientele and audience. These individuals and groups
vary in their needs and context where they avail of counseling services.
The clientele and audiences of counseling are normal people. They are not in
need of clinical or mental help. They may be the youth in need of guidance at critical
moments of their growth, anyone in need of assistance in realizing a change in
behavior or attitude, or simply seeking to achieve a goal. What the audience normally
calls for in counseling is application or development of social skills, effective
communication, spiritual direction, decision-making, and career choices.
Sometimes, people need to cope with crisis. Other clientele and audiences of
counseling may be people in need of premarital and marital counseling, grief and
loss, domestic violence and other types of abuse, or coping with terminal illness,
death, and dying.
The needs vary for each type of clientele and audience of counseling. As school
guidance counselors, these professionals provide the need for personal guidance by
helping students seek more options and find better and more appropriate ones in
dealing with situations of stress or simply decision-making. This may include career
12
options. Sometimes, they bridge between family and the school in resolving conflicts
that affect students and their families to the extent of becoming a threat to student
development and learning.
The most common type of counseling is the individualized type. The individual
who needs to be helped to manage well a life-changing situation or personal problem
or crisis and other support needs may undergo counseling as an individual. Problems
like alcoholism, loss of job, divorce, imprisonment, and rehabilitation can cause of
shame and embarrassment. Without acquiring enough strength ad ability to go
through such life experience, people are vulnerable and may come out worse.

applied to individuals. However, some are very unique to group and organizational
context.
