Commonalities of Therapist Development A summary of Ronnestad & Skolvholt’s (2003) work
The Lay Helper The lay helper is classified as a counselor without formal training.
In this stage of development the counselor has: • high motivation • high authenticity • low levels of anxiety • tends to use sympathy • has a tendency to over-identify with the client • much of the counselor’s work is based on giving advice and solving the
problems of others • believes in one’s ability to help others and notes that they are such a great
helper The Beginning Student The beginning student is starting formal training in the field of counseling. It is in this phase that the student begins to realize that it takes knowledge and skill to be a counselor and lay concepts are no longer appropriate. This phase is marked by:
• high levels of motivation • authenticity is low to moderate • high anxiety levels • they may feel vulnerable, thus the student may often look to their
supervisor for support, encouragement, positive feedback, and practical skills
The Advanced Student The advanced student is one that is nearing the end of their academic training and is in the internship and supervision process. This student functions at the basic professional level. They have focus and exhibit little sense of humor in the counseling process due to internalized standards and a desire for excellence. The advance student has:
• a desire for autonomy but is reluctant • motivation is moderate • authenticity is low • anxiety is high. • prefers one theory over the others and supervision should
accommodate the student’s choice with the focus on counseling skills and best general practice.
• Needs a supervisor that provides structure, support, modeling and affirmative feedback to the student.
The Novice Professional In this stage the professional:
• transitions from academia into the professional practice of counseling • will challenge or question whether or not the training program has
prepared them for practice and if one fits in the profession. In this case most respond with a renewed energy and zeal for learning and applying theory.
• motivation is low but ends moderate • authenticity is moderate • anxiety is high
The Experienced Professional The experienced professional is one in which has been in the counseling profession for several years. At this stage of development, the central task is to integrate the self into the professional role and maintain a sense of authenticity.
• Due to experience levels they have a sense that nothing is new so they revert inward. In cases in which they have difficulty in they may turn to a “fantasy mentor” or a past mentor for direction.
• They tolerate ambiguity and confidence in the therapeutic alliance. • One manages boundaries well and manages personal and emotional
wounds adversely. • motivation is moderate to high • authenticity is high • anxiety is low
The Senior Professional The senior professional has practice for 20+years and is in transition to elder status. They have a deep sense of realism and have lost illusions and innocence of professional life.
• Some experience boredom but most remain actively engaged within the profession.
• sense of integrity • a shift in one’s thinking has occurred from the self is the hero to the client
is the hero and they feel honored to have been included in this process • motivation is moderate • authenticity is high • anxiety is low
