| Summary: | The holistic person of the counselor, defined along the six dimensions of moral, social, emotional, intellectual, physical, and spiritual development, is a critical component in the professional identity development of the counselor during graduate training (Lowe & Lowe, 2018). For effective identity developmental to occur, the process of articulation and transmission must begin during graduate school through modeling, mentoring, and academic training (Hall & Burns, 2009). Non-faith-based (NFB) counseling programs will struggle to provide holistic professional identity development if the spiritual and moral dimensions are excluded or bracketed in an attempt to bifurcate the personal and professional dimensions, creating an impossible and ingenuous strategy. By acknowledging the fundamental core of spiritual and moral development as keys to the students' aspirations for counseling, faith-based counseling programs can provide a more comprehensive training and professional identity development environment for students to incorporate all facets of their person into their new professional identity and proclaim hope for the field of counseling. |
