Dr. Bani Narula

Abstract :

The present paper reflects on the new roles, practices and trends in counselling. None of the civilization survived without advice and guidance; therefore it would be right to say that counselling has existed in one form or the other since time immemorial. It can be traced back to our ancient epic Bhagavad Gita which embodies the finest principles of counselling for people of all times and ages to the 21st century counselling which is seen catering to the imminent societal trends such as issues of ageing population, raising quality of life, incorporating neuroscience into counselling, emphasis on wellness assessment, strengths and life span development. Also positive psychology also has its roots in counselling. Thus, in today’s era it has become imperative for counselling psychology to explore efficient and meaningful services in order to deal with plethora of upcoming issues.
