EDUCATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL COUNSELING

Summary/Abstract: Most theoretical approaches in career guidance are based on normative-prescriptive rational decision-making models we believe to be neither practical nor ethically acceptable to counselors and counselees. Counsellors have to take into account the limited cognitive abilities of counselees as well as their emotions. Therefore they will have to integrate decision-making models under “bounded rationality” into their subjective theories because only this will allow them to tune into their clients’ heuristics and enable them of “cognitive empathy”.
