Abstract
While most counseling theories acknowledge the vital importance of internal dialogue or how clients process information, there has been little attention to how that internal dialogue can become a resource in the counseling process. The article describes a conceptual model for utilizing internal dialogue through a Triad Training Model that matches a coached client with a procounselor and anticounselor in a three-person team to articulate the client' positive and negative internal dialogue when matched with a culturally different counselor in a role-played interview. Culture is defined broadly to include demographic, status and affiliation variables as well as ethnographic characteristics. The advantages of a counselor trainee receiving immediate and continuous - positive as well as negative - feedback from a procounselor and anticounselor are discussed.
