Counselling meas different things to different people. To some it's about advice, and to others it's tea and sympathy. For others, counselling is a long term process.
My interpretation of the meaning of counselling is about helping people who want to change some aspects of their thoughts, feelings or behavior to enhance their life, or simply to explore and/or clarify their thoughts or feelings.By counselling I mean talking to a counselor, i.e., someone who is properly trained and has regular professional supervision.
Counselling is not about giving advice in the sense of ready-made solutions to your problem. No one can be 'sent' for counselling and counselling can't be 'done to you'. A person makes a positive choice to see a counselor and the process demands commitment in terms of time, hard work and finance.
