Abstract
Counseling embraces creativity. As counselor educators, creativity is an opportunity to model
vulnerability, identity, integrity, and connectedness (Palmer 2017) for students. McCarthy
Journal of Asia Pacific Counseling, 7(1), 37–45 (2017) posited questions about the infusion
of creativity into the counselor education classroom. This article attempts to address his
questions regarding faculty views of creativity in counselor education, and how educators
can enhance their knowledge and practice of innovative pedagogical classroom practices.
Throughout this manuscript, the authors seek to engage with the reader about why creativity is
important in the classroom, how creativity may enhance student learning, and also to provide
examples for creative interventions in the classroom and in assignments.
