Extending the Humanistic Vision: Toward a Humanities Foundation for the Counseling Profession
Hansen, James T.
Journal of Humanistic Counseling, v51 n2 p133-144 Oct 2012
Founding humanists argued that counseling should be ideologically grounded in the humanities. Currently, professional counseling culture is largely structured by scientific assumptions, which, the author maintains, have had a detrimental impact on the profession. Specific recommendations for shifting professional counseling culture to a humanities foundation are offered.
