Gelişimsel Psikolojik Danışma ve Terapi: Bilişsel Stillerin Psikolojik Danışmada Kullanımı

Öz

Gelişimsel Psikolojik Danışma ve Terapi (GPDT), günümüzde psikolojik danışma alanında dünyada giderek ilgi gören yaklaşımlardan biridir. Temelleri Sokrates ve Piaget’den esinlenerek oluşturulan bu yaklaşımda, bilişsel stiller kavramı ön plana çıkmaktadır. GPDT, bilişsel stiller kavramı ile psikolojik danışma sürecinde danışanın kendini ve dünyayı algılayış şeklini kavramada ve ona uygun müdahalelerde bulunmada yardımcı bir yaklaşımdır. Psikolojik danışma sürecinde danışanın gelişimsel stilinin yanında psikolojik danışmanın kullandığı yardım etme stilini de vurgu yaparak yatay ve dikey gelişim kavramlarıyla psikolojik danışma sürecine önemli katkılarda bulunmaktadır. GPDT, hem yetişkin, çocuk psikolojik danışma süreci hem de okul psikolojik danışma süreci gibi farklı alanlarda etkililiği kanıtlanmış bir yaklaşımdır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada, GPDT’nin teorik alt yapısı ele alınarak, bilişsel stiller tanıtılmış, bu stilleri kullanan danışanlara yönelik örnekler verilmiştir. Ayrıca yaklaşımın insan doğasına bakışı ve terapötik süreçte farklı bilişsel stiller ve buna uygun müdahaleler örnekler verilerek ele alınmış ve ilgili araştırmalara yer verilmiştir. Alan yazın taraması yapılarak oluşturulan bu çalışmada psikolojik danışma sürecinde uygulamacılara yönelik pratik bilgilere yer verilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
