GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING THEORIES, TECHNIQUES, AND PRACTICES FOR FILIPINOS: A LITERATURE REVIEW OF FREE AND ACCESSIBLE RESEARCH ARTICLES ONLINE

Gianina Bruno

This paper reports on a systematic review of 12 pieces of educational research relating to the counseling theories, techniques and practices in the Philippines. Despite the few number of local literatures in the field of counseling, the researcher found few studies published in the Philippines that addresses the existence of various counseling theories and practices. The criteria in selecting the studies were that they: 1) must be authored by a Filipino, 2) must be conducted in the Philippines or among Filipino participants, 3) must be discovering theories, techniques or practices in counseling or that they must be employing theories, techniques or practices; and 4) must be accessible through free and open-access journals. The identified studies were divided into two categories which are: Filipino Values-Related Theories, Techniques and Practices and Filipino Trauma-Related Theories, Techniques and Practices.

thesis on guidance and counseling in the philippines

Nanang Gunawan

Guidance and Counseling or Counseling in Indonesia’s school context has been developing since the 1960s. It has been dealing with its cultural adaptation, mistrust, and low professional standards’ issues as the position is as teachers and without standardized licensure as counselors. These situations have become more challenging when Indonesia started the transition period to a democratic country in 1998. More psychological problems have developed along with the trending of population growth, free trade, politics, and environmental damages. However, psychological services are still limited including the low number of professionals. Today, the psychological difficulties are inevitable for most Indonesians who are living in the more collective community with individualistic pattern of behavior as the result of the surge in globalization and governmental system transitions. To provide counseling services, counselors and other mental health professionals mostly have adopted Western coun...

This study is an exploration of the contemporary Filipino family interrelationships and dynamics with the objective of proposing a family-oriented counseling program which can be implemented for a better family wellbeing. Nine families from the province of Nueva Ecija were selected and interviewed to assess their overall family functioning. Data gathered were analyzed thematically. The qualitative data’s trustworthiness where squared through triangulation, stability check, and member checking. Yielded themes were then used as a benchmark for the organization of a comprehensive family counseling program. Major themes revolved around family relationships, familial decision making, and societal judgmental attitudes. Hence, it can be assumed that the contemporary Filipino family can be best understood from the viewpoints of these themes. The proposed family-oriented counseling program was designed based on the overall implications of the said themes. This consisted of responsive and exp...

The quality of counselor performance can be seen from the implementation of professional counseling that is complete and effective. On the other side, Indonesian counselors are struggling with Permendikbud No. 111 of 2014, which provides professional services at a ratio that approves a counselor serving 150 students. This makes it necessary for a counseling model that has a simpler, more concise procedure and immediately shows effective results accompanied by a load of cultural awareness in the implementation process. What has happened so far is that Indonesian counselors are still trapped in counseling models born from Western philosophy, not in accordance with the cultural, social and cultural diversity of Indonesia which often results in incomplete counseling processes. KIPAS counseling is a model of local culture-based counseling, making it effective to be applied in Indonesian counseling services. The reality that appears at this time is, the need for the amount of completion o...
