The Journal of Humanistic Counseling cover

SCOPE

The aim of the journal is to disseminate contemporary humanistic scholarship and research that support practitioner growth, training program development, and the vital promotion of inclusivity and diversity across worldviews. Articles should emphasize ways in which humanistic, existential and phenomenological perspectives inform counseling practice, theory and outcomes. Since humanism is traditionally associated with philosophical inquiry, we welcome submissions on theoretical, conceptual and philosophical issues in counseling. The journal is also committed to practitioner growth and welcomes case study submissions that speak to the professional experience of counselors in the field.
