摘要:AbstractFocusing counselling on students in educational environments may seem both justified and consistent with frequently cited paradigms. However, at least in Romania, there is a growing consensus that teachers are being deprived of proper counselling and that something should be done about it. The study analyses current professional and social contexts influencing teachers and identifies counselling needs, using the Lifeskills helping conceptual framework.The Lifeskills helping conceptual and operational framework proved to be a useful tool for defining counselling needs in such a way as to increase the probability to set up relevant counselling programs targeting specific groups of teachers, as well as to select appropriate intervention techniques and means for individual problems.
