Evidence Based counselling

Promotion of evidence-based practice to the counselling profession is widespread; however, the uptake of suggested “best practices” by counsellors is limited. Presenting literature suggests that if counsellors are to be effective then they need to engage with treatment options that demonstrate measureable and achievable change. Ethical guidelines also highlight the importance of providing the best service to clients.

You are required to critically analyse the trend for evidence-based, outcome- focused practice.  When developing your discussion consider the following

questions:

  • What factors have led to the shift toward evidence-based, outcome-focused practice?
  • How can counsellors contribute to the development of evidence-basedpractice?
  • What does it mean to be client-direct and outcome-focused?
  • What are the potential perils of client-driven, outcome-focused practice?
