Counselling is: The process that occurs when a client and counsellor set aside time in order to explore difficulties which may include the stressful or emotional feelings of the client.
There is a big difference between a professional counsellor and a person who uses some counselling skills as part of their role, for example their role as a friend or colleague.
Counselling is Not:
1) Giving advice.
2) Judgemental.
3) Attempting to sort out the problems of the client.
4) Expecting or encouraging a client to behave in a way in which the counsellor may have behaved when confronted with a similar problem in their own life.
5) Getting emotionally involved with the client.
Looking at a client's problems from your own perspective, based on your own value system.
So, if you have these skills - Go for it. All the best.
