Best Answer

In general terms, a good counselor demonstrates abilities in two distinct but related ways. First, good counselors have tremendous 'people-skills' such as compassion, the ability and willingness to listen, the desire to help, a basic kindness, humility, and so on. Second, good counselors have highly developed intellectual capacities along with all of the relevant specialized and technical training now available (and in fact required) for those serving as professional counselors.
