      Improving the problems of life in ancient times was a unique role of philosophy. This central role was forgotten due to the dominance of science in the modern era. But in the contemporary era, philosophy has come to its senses and is trying to revive its position in life through practical activities such as philosophical counselling. Achieving this goal requires clarifying the boundaries of differentiation between this emerging approach and other forms of psychological counselling. Therefore, this research was done with the aim of explaining the differences between philosophical counselling and psychological counselling. The type of research is applied in terms of purpose and qualitative in terms of approach, and conceptual analysis method and interpretive method were used to explain the purpose. Based on the findings of the research, the differences between these two areas can be explained in terms of the difference in definition, therapeutic role, topic, task and role, skills, goals and the relationship between client and consultant. The results of the research showed that these two areas can support each other as a complement and consider the worldview and mental state of the clients together. Manuscript profile
