Abstract

In career counseling, the 20th century was dominated by traditional and modern theories; and the 21st century by postmodern theories. The new paradigm suggests that school practices should focus more on quantitative and qualitative techniques. In career interviews based on new techniques and models, the relationships between the themes in the stories of the clients are reconstructed, leading to improvements in the structure of life and facilitating decision-making in the current situation. Constructivist approaches, which continue to develop both in terms of literature and practice, are relatively new. In fact, it can be said that it is much newer in terms of both literature and practice in Turkey. In order to contribute to the literature and draw attention to post-modern approaches, this study, which was conducted as literature research, examined the constructivist approach, post-modern model suggestions, chaos theory, and multicultural career counseling approaches within the scope of post-modern approaches in career counseling.
