Army Counseling

ATP 6-22.1 is the Army Techniques Publication that provides guidelines for conducting counseling sessions within the U.S. Army. It outlines the principles, procedures, and formats for effective counseling to develop and improve service members.

The three categories of developmental counseling in the army are event-oriented counseling, performance counseling, and professional growth counseling. Additionally, military and family readiness counseling also play a key role in supporting service members and their families.

R and I counseling, or Reception and Integration counseling, is conducted when a soldier first joins a new unit. It helps introduce the soldier to the unit's standards and expectations, ensuring they integrate smoothly and understand their roles.
