Abstract

The counselors required competencies which are needed to do their job well. One of the competencies is the ability to identify a counselee, especially on the multicultural context. If the counselors can recognize their counselee well, they can determine the kind of intervention or an appropriate therapy for a counselee. There are many ways to assess and identify a counselee. One of them is by using physiognomy. Physiognomy is the study of seeing and understanding body appearance as a means to identify the intangible personal characteristics. This paper discussed physiognomy as a study to see counselee from many perspectives such as physiognomy from Western, the Middle East, China, and Indonesia. The method used in this paper is a literature review through inter-textual approach. The result showed that physiognomy can be used as an efficient alternative, especially when a counselor does not have many times for counselee who needs intervention or therapy in limited time. Moreover, this paper also discussed how to apply physiognomy along with its advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of using physiognomy are easy and more efficient to be applied, while some disadvantages are also found such as a cultural bias, a pseudo-science, and a pseudo expression from a counselee observed.
