本研究旨在探討大四實習諮商員在個別諮商實習期間諮商能力的發展情形。研究者針對十六位輔導科系之實習諮商員，在一學期的諮商實習過程中，進行四次焦點團體訪談。訪談所得資料以質性的内容分析方法進行分析，研究發現實習諮商員諮商能力的表現與發展情形如下：1.諮商信念：實習諮商員由實習初期直接套用理論的概念來進行晤談，改變成注意當事人的個別差異，也變得較有彈性地接納諮商員可以有自己的價値觀；但進行實務工作時，仍缺乏與諮商理論間的連結。2.諮商關係：實習諮商員逐漸瞭解建立關係的方式與時機，但尚未能善用良好關係協助當事人改變。有些實習諮商員能逐漸修正與當事人的互動，因而產生較佳的諮商關係；有些則讓諮商隨性發展而變成聞聊。3.概念形成：實習諮商員由晤談前收集當事人「問題」的資料，轉而重視在互動中得到對當事人正向方面的認識；但是實習諮商員仍缺乏分析與統整個案訊息的能力，無法確立工作方向與目標。在互動中也會因在意自己的表現，未能評估當事人的問題；缺乏理論架構而無法分析當事人問題的成因、瞭解當事人的心理動力。在回顧諮商過程時，實習諮商員能開始體驗到晤談是循序漸進發展的過程，但因爲缺乏對晤談過程的後設認知，以致無法做出有效的反應。4.諮商技術：實習諮商員僅重視運用諮商的技術，未能體會技術的理論基礎，也仍缺乏統合應用各種技術的能力。5.自我覺察：實習諮商員能覺察自己被引發的情緒，但未能予以有效的處理；自我覺察偏向自我反省，能覺察自己在某些議題上諮商處理能力有所侷限，能發現疑惑並主動尋求解決之道，但仍無法釐清諮商員的角色定位。6.專業倫理：實習諮商員在實習過程中特別重視專業倫理中的「保密」守則，也盡己所能地確實遵守。與大四實習諮商員諮商能力的發展與變化有關的情境與脈絡因素，包括：實習諮商員的學習背景與個人信念，實習諮商員在實習期間的上課經驗、接受督導經驗、學校實習經驗與累積之接案經驗。研究者最後依據研究結果加以討論，並提出建議，以作爲改進大四實習諮商員實習與督導課程，及後續相關研究之參考。

The purpose of this study was to explore the developmental changes of college-level novice counselorsJ counseling abilities during a semester practicum training. The participants of this study were 16 voluntary college-level novice counselors from the department of guidance of a university. Four times of the focus group interviews were conducted to gather the text for analysis. The main findings were as follows: The results indicated developmental changes in six dimensions of counseling ability, including counseling believes, counseling relationship, conceptualization skills, helping skills, self-awareness, and professional ethic. Novice counselors respected the individual differences of their clients, acknowledged that counselors could have their own viewpoints. They finally found out how to interact with their clients, and collect data more efficiently. They tried hard to bring the skills into practice, but not appreciated the spirit of the skill. They could not unify the therapeutic plan with due considerations for all concerned. After every session, they tended to make a selfexamination and discoverd their own emotional arousal. In the long round, they found out their deficiency in some issues and looked forward further supervision. Besides, novice counselors could abide by the confidential principle as well. Suggestions for counselor education, supervision and future research were provided based on the findings and limitations of this study.
