Models of Career Counseling and Their Metaphors

Öz

One of the competencies for career counselors is the need to be conversant with multiple career development theories and models and possess the ability to apply them in counseling practice. The 21st century ushered in a period of unprecedented change in which nearly every facet of both personal life and career. This postmodern period saw the rise of new career development theories and models that gave greater significance to perceived realities constructed by each individual. A characteristic of many of the postmodern theories was the reliance upon metaphor to provide structure and framework which provided easily identifiable content and personal meaning. The current article reviews five of these postmodern models and the metaphors used by each. These models are Career Scope Model, Flower Exercise/Model, Four Pillars Model, Career flow: A Hope-Centered Model of Career Development, Career Sailboat Model.

Kariyer Psikolojik Danışmanlığındaki Modeller ve Modellerde Kullanılan Metaforlar

Öz

Kariyer psikolojik danışmanlığında etkili hizmet vermek için gerekli olan yeterlik ve becerilerden birisi kariyer gelişimi ile ilgili kuramları ve modelleri bilmek ve onları psikolojik danışma uygulamalarında kullanabilmektir. Yirmi birinci yüzyıldaki hızlı değişimler yaşamın her alanında olduğu gibi kişisel ve kariyer yaşamda da fark yaratmıştır. Bu postmodern dönemde, bireylerin kendi gerçekliklerine göre kariyerlerini yapılandırdıklarını vurgulayan yeni kariyer gelişim kuramları ve modelleri ortaya çıkmıştır. Postmodern yaklaşımların ortak özelliklerinden birisi içerikleri ve kişisel anlamı kolayca tanımlamaya yarayan yapı ve çerçeve sunmaları açısından kuramlarda ve modellerde metaforları kullanmalarıdır. Bu makalede bu modellerden Kariyer Teleskobu Modeli, Çiçek Modeli, Dört Köşetaşı Modeli, Kariyer Akışı: Umut Odaklı Kariyer Gelişim Modeli ve Kariyer Yelkenlisi Modeli kullandıkları kariyer metaforları açısından gözden geçirilmiştir.
