Counseling clients and audiences are ordinary people who do not require clinical or mental
assistance but do require counseling for the application or development of social skills or effective
communication, for spiritual direction, for guidance in decision-making or making career choices,
for enlightenment or sense of purpose in times of crisis.

They may be:


•The youth in need of guidance at critical moments of their growth;
•People in need of assistance in realizing a change in behavior or attitude
•People who are merely attempting to achieve a goal; or
•People coping with crisis.
