我们图表的咨询在英国的发展，因为第二次世界大战到现在，并推测可能的方向咨询可能采取的未来。我们的主要，但不是唯一的，重点是咨询作为一个发展中的专业和英国咨询协会在这一发展中发挥的特殊作用。为此，我们考虑了一些专业问题，在该领域的从业人员和那些可能会这样做的未来。因此，除其他外，我们考虑咨询和心理治疗之间的关系，咨询在英国社会中日益增加的可见度的成本和收益，监督在维护专业标准中发挥的作用，围绕咨询师认证/注册问题的辩论，标准和道德的发展以及咨询的关系和技术方面之间存在的紧张关系。辅导并非存在于真空中，这一点在我们对辅导未来发展的推测中表现得最为明显。因此，例如，我们认为，咨询将不得不努力与社会对人类服务的问责制越来越重视，并与技术发展领域发生的不可阻挡的进步。我们注意到，咨询对这些重大趋势的反应必须在人类知识以前不同领域之间的障碍不断消除的背景下作出。
We chart the development of counselling in Britain since the Second World War through to the present and speculate about possible directions counselling may take in the future. Our major, but not exclusive, focus is on counselling as a developing profession and the particular role that the British Association for Counselling has played in this development. To this end, we consider some of the professional issues that have preoccupied practitioners in the field and those that may do so in the future. Thus, amongst others, we consider the relationship between counselling and psychotherapy, the costs and benefits of counselling's increasing visibility in British society, the role that supervision has come to play in the maintenance of professional standards, the debate that has surrounded the issue of counsellor accreditation/registration, the development of standards and ethics and the tension that exists between the relational and technical aspects of counselling. Counselling does not exist in a vacuum, and this is seen most strikingly in the speculations that we make about future developments of counselling. Thus, for example, we argue that counselling will have to grapple with the increasing emphasis that society places on the accountability of human services and with the inexorable progress occurring in the area of technological development. We note that counselling's response to these significant trends will have to be made against the backdrop of the continuing dissolution of barriers between previously distinct areas of human knowledge.
