This document discusses the role of guidance counselors in the Philippine K-12 education program. It begins by noting the new challenges counselors face in helping students choose career paths under the reforms. It then examines the current situation where many students do not pursue college or enter the workforce. The document outlines the guidance services counselors provide, including individual inventories, information dissemination, counseling, consultation, prevention/wellness programs, referrals, placement, and follow-up. It distinguishes between group and individual counseling. Finally, it quotes the author's view of their role as a lighthouse to help students find their own way, rather than directly rescuing them.

GC DEFINED ? Guidance and Counseling is a helping relationship. ? The helping relationship is aimed to meet the needs of the counselee. ? It is aimed that the counselee shall assume responsibility for himself, make his own decisions based on alternatives and approaches. ? Counselors assist and support counselees so they can come to terms with their problems by exploration, understanding, and constructive action.
WHAT IS GUIDANCE? ? According to Aquino and Alviar, Guidance tends to help the individual to become adjusted to his present situation so as to provide maximum development for him and to help him plan for his future based on his capabilities and needs. ? Crow and Crow give their definition of guidance by stating what guidance is not. According to them, guidance is not giving direction. It is not imposing one¡¯s point of view upon another person. It is not making decisions for the person seeking assistance. It is not carrying the burden of another life. ? Guidance is pre-problem.
WHAT IS COUNSELING? ? According to Dinkmeyer (1996) it is a personal relationship between a counselee and a professionally trained counselor who aims to assist him to communicate and meet his immediate needs and problems. ? Blocker (1996) says that it is an interaction process which facilitates meaningful understanding of self and environment. The process results in the establishment and/or clarification of goals and values for future behavior. ? Toribio (1976) presents what counseling is not. She said, it is not the giving of advice. It is not forcing beliefs, attitudes, or behavior by persuasion or coercion. It is not assigning or selecting goals or jobs for individuals. Rather, it is providing conditions which facilitate voluntary change. ? Counseling is post-problem.
WHY MUST THE COUNSELOR NOT BE INVOLVED IN THE ACTUAL ADMINISTRATION AND PUNISHMENT? ? It is the function of guidance to help the individual understand why the behavior is unacceptable which results to punishment by some authorities. The counselor should not be involved in the actual administration of punishment of the student, nor work to free him from any punishment like a defense lawyer. This is so because it would be difficult to establish and maintain rapport that is necessary for counseling and guidance.
GROUP GC VS INDIVIDUAL GC ? Group GC is any group activity in which the primary purpose is to assist each individual in the group to solve his problems and make adjustments. It discusses problems common to a group, develops awareness that problems are also shared by others, broadens the horizons of students with reference to occupational choice available to them. ? Individual GC is given to a single person at a time. Ordonez enumerates the most common cases brought to the Guidance Clinic by individuals. They include 1. ambition, 2. choice of school, 3. failing grades, 4. personality maladjustment, 5. choice of a vocation, 6. employment, 7. physical or mental handicap, 8. family problem
GUIDANCE SERVICES ? 1. INDIVIDUAL INVENTORY¡ªinformation gathered about each individual in school that can be available for reference, can be used for proper diagnoses, predicting progress and behaviors, accurate placement, and program evaluation. This can include the PDS, anecdotal report, anecdotal record, rating scales, checklists, autobiography, self-expression essay, self-description essay, diaries, questionnaires, structured interviews, disciplinary decision, test results
GUIDANCE SERVICES ? 2. INFORMATION ? ¡°Nobody can make appropriate decisions without pertinent information.¡± ? KINDS: personal-social (How one can improve oneself or relationship with others), academic-educational, vocational-occupational ? Major Methods of Dissemination: Printed Material, Small Group Guidance Activity, Homeroom/Classroom Guidance, Seminars/Symposia/Conferences
GUIDANCE SERVICES ? 3. COUNSELING¡ªacademic, vocational, persona;/social, diet, crisis counseling, bereavement, pastoral, leisure counseling, addiction counseling ? THE COUNSELING PROCESS: Relationship Building, Assessment and Diagnosis, Formulation of Counseling Goals, Intervention and Problem Solving, Termination and Follow-Up
GUIDANCE SERVICES ?4. CONSULTATION¡ªallows work with clients to be facilitated ?In the school setting, C¡¯lors consult with administrators, teachers, students, parents, and other stakeholders.
GUIDANCE SERVICES ? 5. PREVENTION AND WELLNESS ? 3 LEVELS of Prevention ? Primary (people who are not presently afflicted by the disorder), Secondary (focuses on those who are experiencing early onset), Tertiary (deals with individuals already afflicted by the disorder and are being helped to manage it) ? For efficacy, prevention program should be implemented before onset of indicators, targets populations not individuals, consider the uniqueness of the population and their environment. ? WELLNESS¡ªcounselors should be involved in programs promoting lifestyle change for healthy living
GUIDANCE SERVICES ?6. REFERRAL¡ªthe tapping of agencies, organizations, or individuals that may be of better assistance in the counselee¡¯s resolution of problems and attainment of goals.
GUIDANCE SERVICES ? 7. PLACEMENT the facilitation of the client¡¯s movement to the appropriate educational/occupational level or program; entry into the appropriate co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, pursuit of further education or other employment upon leaving the institution.
GUIDANCE SERVICES ?8. FOLLOW-UP ?The appraisal of how counselees who have been counseled, placed, or referred or have graduated are doing, to determine whether further assistance is necessary.

Editor's Notes

  • #9: Establishing rapport will enable the c¡¯lor to find out why such unacceptable behavior was committed, to discover the motives behind the undesirable conduct done, and determine the consequences that might arise from that misconduct.
