人们常用“心理咨询师是消极情绪的垃圾桶”来描述心理咨询师这一较新的职业角色,这种比喻值得商榷。在咨询实践的基础上,我认为心理咨询师首先要有容纳(contain)的能力,但是仅仅容纳还远远不够,在容纳和抱持(hold on)的基础上,心理咨询师需要将来访者提供的倾诉“原材料”协助来访者进行“加工”转化。那么,如若非要为咨询师寻找一个譬喻的话,我认为中国古代的“鼎”或许可以作此象征。 People often use “psychological counselors are negative emotions trash ” to describe the psychological counselor this new professional role, this analogy is debatable. Based on consulting practice, I think that counselors should first have the ability to contain, but the mere accommodation is not enough. On the basis of accommodation and hold on, psychologists need to provide visitors Conversation provided “Raw Materials ” helps visitors to “process” their conversions. Well, if one needs to find a metaphor for counselors, I think the ancient Chinese “Ding” may make this symbol.
