Explanation:
What are the benefits of being a Peer Counselor? Peer Counselors gain skills in active listening and problem solving that can be applied to many real life situations. They also receive the good feeling of helping others, while interacting with other peer counselors.
Peer counseling has many advantages to the client, the counselor and the community. The client is given the opportunity to model after someone whom s/he has reached out to. The person is given the opportunity to develop coping skills that presumably work because they work with the peer counselor person is relating to.
