Implication of the Scientist-Practitioner Model in Counseling Psychology Training and Practice

Dina Myers

Northern Arizona University

The scientist-practitioner model was created at the Boulder Conference in 1949 by a 73-member panel consisting of various professionals in the counseling field with the intention to improve counselor training and ultimately, counseling practices. To abide by this model, students and professionals in the counseling psychology field must integrate both science and practice by becoming skillful in research and possessing an extensive understanding of the human condition. The extent to which a dichotomization of science and practice has occurred and its impact on current training and practice are reviewed.

Key Words: scientist-practitioner model • scientist-practitioner • counseling psychology • counselor training
