“…Supportive and educational counselling (or personal adjustment and informational counselling) aims to help a person deal with current feelings and concerns and to make use of available personal and societal resources (Stone and Olswang ). Informational counselling is described as a process of explaining the nature, assessment and treatment of the problem (Atkins ). Personal adjustment counselling is described as a client‐centred approach that helps clients adjust and cope with thoughts, attitudes, feelings and problems related to the communication disorder (Rosenberg ).…”

“…Speech–language therapy professional guidelines recommend that speech–language therapists recognize their competence in any specific clinical practice, stay within their boundaries and/or seek appropriate training to attain the required competence (Speech Pathology Australia ). A study by Atkins () on communication disorders students’ ability to identify counselling boundaries recommended that counselling training in communication disorders include clinical counselling experiences so students feel confident in counselling theories and techniques, self‐reflection, self‐ and peer assessment, and discussion about appropriate and inappropriate topics. Stone and Olswang () suggested that an understanding of the focus (content) and style (dynamics) of the counselling relationship and similarities and differences between psychotherapy and counselling provide clarification of professional boundaries.…”

Background Speech–language therapists use counselling to address the psychological well‐being of people affected by post‐stroke aphasia. Speech–language therapists report low counselling knowledge, skill and confidence for working in post‐stroke aphasia which may be related to a lack of counselling training specific to the needs of this client group. Aims To identify current training in counselling for speech–language therapists to address psychological well‐being in people affected by post‐stroke aphasia. Specifically, the intent was to establish the objectives, content, amount, teaching methods and outcomes of counselling training provided to speech–language therapists working with people affected by post‐stroke aphasia. Methods & Procedures Eleven databases were searched from inception to January 2018 using terms relating to counselling, psychological well‐being, speech–language therapy, stroke, aphasia and training. Studies using any research methodology and design were included. Nine studies were critically appraised and synthesized as a systematic review using the Search, AppraisaL, Synthesis and Analysis (SALSA) framework. Main Contribution Information on counselling training came from the UK, United States and Australia. Student speech–language therapists received training in goal‐setting and generic counselling skills. After qualification, speech–language therapists received counselling training from mental health professionals within stroke workplaces, from external providers and further education. A range of teaching techniques and counselling approaches were described. Self‐report and themes from qualitative data were the primary measures of counselling training outcomes. Moderate correlations were reported between counselling training and levels of speech–language therapists’ knowledge, comfort, confidence and preparedness to counsel people affected by post‐stroke aphasia. Conclusions Research in counselling training for speech–language therapists working in post‐stroke aphasia is limited, with a small number of primarily low‐quality studies available. Training in generic counselling skills and brief psychological approaches with support from mental health professionals in the stroke workplace enabled speech–language therapists to feel knowledgeable, skilled and confident to address the psychological well‐being of people affected by post‐stroke aphasia. Evidence about the effectiveness of counselling training on speech–language therapists’ confidence and competence in practice and on client outcomes in psychological well‐being in post‐stroke aphasia is required.

“…This study emphasizes that counseling training programs should include topics about boundaries of audiologists in the process. As Atkins stated, "programs should differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate topics of discussion between audiologists and the client or the client's family" (Atkins, 2007). Even inexperienced audiologists and graduate students need to know the limits between the clinician and the client.…”

“…Participants completed two surveys which were adapted from "Graduate SLP/Aud Clinicians on Counseling: Self Perceptions and Awareness of Boundaries" by Atkins (2007). The selected items on Atkins' survey were gathered from the research of Riley (Riley, 2002), Gladding (Gladding, 2000), and Flasher and Fogle (Flasher & Fogle, 2004).…”

A A udiology profession evolved from different areas which are related to hearing science with a unique perspective such as engineering, medicine, physiology, psychology, speech pathology and teaching (Burkard, 2002). From this perspective, audiology curriculums have a broad diversity internationally, even within countries (Goulios & Patuzzi, 2008). According to WHO report (1998), the number of audiologists per capita in developing countries were ranged from one audiologist per 0.5 million people to 6.25 million people. The same report indicated that number of audiologists in developed countries is nearly one per 20,000 people (WHO, 1998). Burkard (2002) summarized that the ratio of audiologists in developing to developed countries was 300 to 1 and these numbers indicated the importance of cost-effective model for audiology education. All around the world, audiology education and curriculum varied from country to country or within the country in different regions. For example, it is a two year technical college Ampirik Araflt›rma / Original Empirical Research www.yuksekogretim.org Dan›flmanl›k becerileri, odyoloji ünitelerinde hastalar›n ve ailelerinin memnuniyeti artt›rmak için önemlidir. Bu çal›flman›n amac›, odyoloji ö¤rencilerinin dan›flmanl›k becerileri, kendilerinin kiflileraras› iletiflim becerileri ve dan›flmanl›k sürecindeki s›n›rlar›na iliflkin bilgilerine yönelik bak›fl aç›lar›n›n belirlenmesidir. ‹lk ankete yirmi bir ö¤renci, ikinci ankete otuz sekiz ö¤renci kat›lm›flt›r. Bütün ö¤renciler 2015-2016 bahar döneminde "‹letiflim Bozukluklar›nda Dan›flmanl›k" dersini alm›fllard›r. Ö¤renciler "‹letiflim Bozukluklar›nda Dan›flmanl›k" dersinden önce ve sonra de¤erlendirilmifllerdir. Kat›l›mc›lar her iki ankette de iki form doldurmufllard›r. ‹lk formun amac› ö¤rencilerin dan›flmanl›k ve kiflileraras› iletiflim becerilerine yönelik alg›lar›n›n belirlenmesidir. ‹kinci form, ö¤rencilerin odyoloji prati¤indeki uzmanl›k s›n›rlar› hakk›ndaki bilgilerini de¤erlendirmeyi hedeflemifltir. Sonuçlar, dersin sonunda ö¤rencilerin iletiflim becerileri ve kendileri hakk›nda daha güvenli hissettiklerini iflaret etmektedir. Ancak dan›flmanl›k becerilerinden memnun olmalar›na ra¤men, odyolog olarak dan›flmanl›k s›n›rlar›n› belirlemede zorlanmaya devam etmifllerdir. Odyoloji programlar›n›n odyologlar›n dan›flmanl›k s›n›rlar›n› vurgulayan, dan›fl-manl›¤a yönelik daha fazla derse ve e¤itim program›na ihtiyaçlar› bulun-maktad›r.
