a process of helping young persons to learn to adjust to self, to others and to
circumstances. Guidance is helping an individual to help himself and to develop
his potentialities to the fullest by utilizing the maximum opportunities
provided by the environment.
WHAT IS COUNSELLING
Counselling is the service offered to the individual who is undergoing a problem and needs professional help to over come it. The problem keeps him disturbed, high strung.
Under tension and unless solved, his development is hampered or stunted. Counseling therefore is a more specialized service regaining training in personality development and handling exceptional groups of individual suffering form sensory handicaps like visually handicapped, deaf and mute, speech disorders or from physical handicaps like malfunctioning of glands or vital organs; orthopaedically handicapped, personal social handicaps like neurotics, psyholotics, depressed isolates or from intellectual retardation or exceptionally high talent and so on.
Counseling services are therefore
required for individual having developmental problems because of the handicap
they suffer in any area of growth like physical, mental, moral, social and
