Counter-Alternative Psychological Counseling Approaches in the era of Exploitative Capitalism: Focusing on Social Justice Counseling

What kind of discrimination and oppression does the system of the age that we are passing through give structural inequality to citizens-noncitizens? If structural discrimination and oppression are revealed in the visible-invisible realm, what kind of approach does modern psychotherapy need? This study is social justice counseling on psychological counseling approach reflecting the spirit of the times. The purpose of this study is to examine how capitalism in the present era has come to be exploitative and to explore how social justice counseling, a psychological counseling approach based on its exploitation, can have counter-action and alternative. Exploited capitalism has divided into various categories by precariat, and it has proliferated indefinitely by deploying discrimination and oppression between those categories. As a result, the majority of human animal and nonhuman animal beings living on Earth have been trapped in a matrix of pain. Traditional psychological counseling approaches have not captured these structural pitfalls, which have limited the role of psychological counseling, and lack of a sense of sitting on the sidelines of the inclined system. With this sense of criticism, social justice counseling, psychological counseling approach that captures that human animal and nonhuman animal suffering lies in the exploitation of the system, laid the foundation for advocating for the oppressed subject based on the worldview of diversity.
