Ethics in Counseling


What role do you believe the Holy Spirit has in the personal and professional life of a Christian counselor?
A counselor is a kind of mentor as they are there to help guide people to make the right choices, while understanding that the individual has the freedom to choose the choices that they make. We can either take the wide road away from God, or the narrow road towards God. Christian Counselors help clients get back onto the narrow road to God. God seeks out those who have strayed away from him and tries to lure them back with subtle messages. If one created wealth while along the wide road, and that wealth suddenly erodes away, one may think they are on a bad luck streak. A Christian counselor will help them by pointing out some similarities in the life with those in scripture, such as in the book Job. Although I have always had an interest in psychology, recent life experiences have caused me to make a career change. The sudden death of my mom two years ago and the two years as my dad’s full time caregiver God’s way of shaking me in order to wake me in discovering my true calling in life.
As we are all counselors to some extent, counseling can be described as a face to face relationship, but only those counselors who have allowed to have the Holy Spirit provide the wisdom and knowledge from God, will enable them to help a client to learn or acquire new skills which will enable them to cope and adjust to life situations. This can be a relationship between counselor and employee or teacher and student. Whatever the situation, the focus is to help a person reach maximum fulfillment or potential, and to become fully functioning as a person. God is considered the “great physician.” A Christian counselor is a person who helps a person find meaning in life. A person comes to counseling because they are in a state of imbalance. They have somehow lost their way or have come to an impasse. Clinton and Ohlschlager (2002) state that “a Christian counselor is someone who is able to provide clarity and a positive and constructive venue for the individual in order to sensibly examine the instinctive-emotional and rational or irrational motives which determine the drive, content, and even the form of human conduct.” The counselor helps the person by imparting the wisdom and knowledge from God through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit acts as a mediator for our great physician. This “wisdom from above” leads both the counselor and the client with heightened meaning and wellness (Clinton & Ohlschlager, 2002, pg. 100). References Clinton, T., & Ohlschlager, G. (2002).
