In recent years, the distinctively Western institution of psychological counseling has been imported to and taken root in some sectors of Taiwanese society. This study investigates how the values and practices of counseling are maintained or transformed in this new cultural context. Because they emerged in the modern West, most counseling theory and practice are saturated with individualist values and ideal. Recently, many critics of modern counseling/psychotherapy have questioned whether its individualist ideology is entirely desirable. They suggest that psychotherapy may inadvertently perpetuate certain values and practices of modern society that are a significant source of the emotional and behavioral problems in living for which people often seek help from mental health professionals in the first place. Because these values and practices clash in some respects with the traditions and outlook in Oriental cultures, and because they are being questioned sharply even in their original societal context, it seems imperative to critically examine the enterprise of modern counseling as it is popularized in contemporary Taiwan.

520 $a In recent years, the distinctively Western institution of psychological counseling has been imported to and taken root in some sectors of Taiwanese society. This study investigates how the values and practices of counseling are maintained or transformed in this new cultural context. Because they emerged in the modern West, most counseling theory and practice are saturated with individualist values and ideal. Recently, many critics of modern counseling/psychotherapy have questioned whether its individualist ideology is entirely desirable. They suggest that psychotherapy may inadvertently perpetuate certain values and practices of modern society that are a significant source of the emotional and behavioral problems in living for which people often seek help from mental health professionals in the first place. Because these values and practices clash in some respects with the traditions and outlook in Oriental cultures, and because they are being questioned sharply even in their original societal context, it seems imperative to critically examine the enterprise of modern counseling as it is popularized in contemporary Taiwan.
520 $a To explore these issues, the study employs qualitative research methods, primarily the techniques of data collection and analysis offered by the approach of grounded theory. Interviews with thirteen counselors from several counseling settings and two widely circulated publications were analyzed using these techniques. Results suggest that this helping profession in Taiwan is indeed pervaded with modern individualist ideals. It is suggested that these ideals represent a "mainstream voice" among these counselors, but that there is also evidence of a "critical voice" concerned with a more traditional sense of values and priorities in living at work in this profession.
520 $a These findings are examined and discussed from cultural, historical, and critical perspectives. It is suggested that the counseling profession seems afflicted with serious and consequential confusions about its own value underpinnings and the understanding of the good life it propagates. It is discussed what these findings concerning events in contemporary Taiwan might contribute to the wider ongoing debate about the social meaning of modern counseling/psychotherapy.
