Abstract
The field of career counselling has undergone substantial change since its inception. It
has evolved from a developmental, trait-and-factor focus to encompass a holistic,
career/life path approach. A literature review examines adult developmental theory and
career development and counselling theory that support a life-space, life-span career
counselling approach based on an Adlerian perspective. Magnusson's (1992) Five
Critical Career Counselling Processes model is used as a framework for the interventions
presented in each phase of the career counselling process. A variety of non-traditional
interventions are presented, while references are provided for a sampling of standardized
tools and assessment instruments. Finally a list of relevant resources provides information
to facilitate access to useful career counselling handbooks, articles, research,
interventions, and websites.
