Association for Humanistic Counseling [AHC] is a division of ACA for whom?

• A. For those interested in humanistic counseling and education.
• B. For medical doctors.
• C. For school administrators.
• D. For researchers in neuropsychology.

Answer: (A)

The main idea is identifying who the Association for Humanistic Counseling serves within the professional counseling community. This division of the American Counseling Association is dedicated to counselors and educators who embrace humanistic approaches—focusing on the person, growth, autonomy, and a client-centered, holistic view of counseling. It provides resources, networking, and professional development for those who align with humanistic values in both practice and education, rather than the other fields.

Medical doctors belong to medical or health-related associations; school administrators belong to education administration groups; and neuropsychology researchers are typically part of psychology or neuroscience organizations. None of these fit the humanistic counseling focus, which is why the audience for the Association for Humanistic Counseling is specifically those interested in humanistic counseling and education.
