중급상담자의 실제관계 경험에 대한 현상학적 연구

초록

This study aimed to explore how intermediate counselors experience real relationships in the counseling setting and to deeply understand the meaning and essence of these experiences. The participants included nine intermediate counselors with a master’s degree or higher and 4 to 9 years of counseling experience. Data analysis applied Giorgi’s phenomenological research method, which is effective in understanding experiences as they are. The study identified five core themes, 13 essential themes, and 34 sub-themes. The five core themes were: ‘value beyond relationship,’ ‘going forward together as they are,’ ‘the process of control and coordination,’ ‘the experience that you and I deeply touch,’ and ‘the difficult journey to become a craftsman.’ Based on the research findings, implications for expanding the understanding of real relationship experiences, providing foundational data for counselor education and supervision practice, and suggestions for further research were discussed.
