Counselling and Coaching in Times of Crisis and Transition posits the idea that threats and challenges caused by rapid social and technological changes increasingly require counsellors and coaches to rethink their usual ways of working and, often, even abandon their traditional theoretical anchors. Because of this and despite the inevitable presence of difficulties, this book argues that practitioners who aim to help people persist in strengthening their resources can no longer afford to wait for clients in their offices and offer them protected, objective and neutral professional relationships.

In this volume, contributors from around the world argue that it is necessary to create new counselling and coaching actions to be delivered in different contexts. In addition, chapters demonstrate that it has become increasingly apparent that it is necessary to be able to use heterogeneous languages, tools and interventions, as well as numerous relationship modalities and activities for different categories of people. As a result, the book provides an evidence-based framework with numerous counselling and coaching examples that are capable of promoting people’s strengths, whether this be face-to-face, in small or large groups, online, or even counsellor-free.

Above all, this volume demonstrates how counsellors can help people to use their resources and energy in order to achieve a better quality of life, despite the threats and challenges they may be facing. As such, the book should be of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of counselling and coaching, as well as in psychological, social and educational science. It should also be essential reading for practitioners in diverse contexts, as well as policymakers around the world.
