| dc.contributor | Choosing a theoretical orientation is a challenging, but essential part of counselor training (Corey, 2016). While some factors contributing to counselors-in-training (CITs) choice of theory have been explored, little is known about the process by which CITs determine their own theoretical orientation. Using a constructivist grounded theory approach, authors found that CITs went through two parallel processes to determine theory fit: (a) increasing knowledge and awareness of theories through the organized events and experiences of the course, and (b) an internal process of filtering theories through a personal and emotional lens. | |
