Summary/Abstract: The complex social and information environment where the educational process of today takes place requires the implementation of different counseling approaches, techniques and technologies as part of the pedagogical practice for the purpose of improving the latter’s effectiveness. Familiarity with and mastery of different strategies and forms of psychological support enhances the teacher’s competencies and contributes to the success and utility of his activity. One of the contemporary approaches to counseling, which has recently been adapted to the field of education, is Keykis counseling. It is an approach primarily focused on analysis of the problem situation the client has found himself in, his style of behavior and the development of multivariate solutions to the presenting problem. Analysis within Keykis counseling is based upon scientifically sound methods of assessment of the available resources, both material and non-material ones, as well as their conversion into possible norms. It is precisely this analysis of the resources and their conversion that serves as the objective foundation upon which multivariate solutions to the problem situation are formulated.
