The aim of this article is to outline possible redefinitions of the counsellogy discourse in relation to the climate crisis. It discusses the problems of people living under climate crisis conditions - the relationship between environmental and social conditions, new forms of risk, and attempts to cope with climate pressures as well as demands for profound changes in the functioning of the dominant economic model and the associated consumer culture. The concept of deep adaptation to climate catastrophe is outlined as a guide addressed to humanity and the essence of the message is to reflect on the meaning of survival. Also relevant is the issue of climate crisis discourses as an ethical framework within which the counselling relationship can be realized. These personal choices will be relevant to changing counselling practice and counselling studies as a discipline. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
