Mitchell (2003), counselors are recognized especially in the preventive
interventions and developmental stage. There are elementary school
counselors, junior high school counselors, secondary school
counselors, counselors in vocational schools, counselors in higher
education, and counselors in community and junior colleges. The
counseling service in the schools is usually located under the student
affairs program. It is under the supervision of the Dean of Students
Affairs.

community, agency, and other non-school professional situations.
Counselors can be found in community and mental health agencies,
employment and rehabilitation agencies, correctional settings, and
marriage and family practice. ( Gibson and Mitchell , 2003 )
- Counselors in the Private Sector – refers to counselors who decided
to do full time work as private practitioners or engage in part – time
private practice while employed by community agencies. This is
feasible if the counselors expertise and specialization matches or
relevant to an adequate client population in the geographic area.
( Gibson and Mitchell , 2003 )
- Counselors in the Civil Society Setting
The context of civil society is generally charities and non-profit
issue-based center organizations such as: for abused women,
abandoned children and elderly, veterans, teachers, professionals or
religious groups

various agencies of government or institutions supported by the
government that are into social welfare, health, and education.
Relevant agencies or institutions include public schools, public social
welfare agencies such as that for the youth, children, and the aging.

assessment and diagnosis, formulation of the counseling goals, intervention and
problem solving, termination and follow –up, and research and evaluation.

the client’s condition.

goals.
3. Stage Three: Formulation of Counseling Goals

5. Stage Five: Termination and Follow –up

without the assistance of the counselor.
 There are four components of termination which were identified by Quintan and
Holahan:
 1. Discussion of the end of counselling
 2. Review of the course of counselling
 3. Closure of the counsellor-client relationship
 4. Discussion of the client’s future and post-counselling plan
6. Stage Six: Research and Evaluation
