Abstract

The American Counseling Association and its members stand in solidarity with professional counselors who work to address the mental health and wellness of individuals, families, and communities affected by the current and impending consequences of climate change. As members of a profession focused on fostering healthy development and wellness across the lifespan, counselors are uniquely equipped to empower clients to proactively address the mental health consequences of climate-related crises and the environmental issues related to climate change. This document introduces professional counselors to facts, actions, and resources that can aid them in addressing the diverse climate-change-based needs of clients and communities.<br>
