Counselling Skills and Natural Abilities: A Comprehensive Report

This report examines the concept of natural counselling abilities, differentiating them from professional counselling skills. It highlights that while everyone possesses inherent abilities to offer support, professional training is crucial for developing effective counselling techniques. The report emphasizes the importance of a client-centered approach, non-judgmental attitudes, and the establishment of a trusting relationship between the counsellor and the client. It contrasts the informal nature of natural counselling, often used among friends and family, with the structured and professionally-oriented environment required for effective counselling practices. The report also references key scholarly articles, such as Borg and Borg (2015) and Tan and Chia (2015), to support its analysis, underscoring the need for counselors to possess a blend of natural abilities and acquired skills to address client issues effectively.
