Summary
In the face of globalization and the rapid development of information technology, individuals are in a world in which Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity (VUCA) reign (Millar et al, 2018), and employment has become increasingly unstable and uncertain. It is important for everyone to design their own lives Based on this situation, the previous guidance of personal career choice has become more difficult to meet people’s needs, and individuals need to improve their career adaptability and manage their careers, especially in designing own lives (Rudolph et al, 2017). Life Design Counseling (LDC) aims to help clients build a personally meaningful life and has the following advantages: firstly, it provides a new perspective for career counseling; secondly, it exerts significant indication on cross-cultural research; it emphasizes the preventive function of career counseling. LDC faces three most important challenges: many people who need help do not have access to targeted LDC; lack of trained LDC counselors; and lack of suitable LDC assessment methods. The unique contribution of this paper is as follows: (1) put forward the challenges faced by LDC in a clear and detailed way and (2) add some targeted countermeasures that can be tried to take in the face of challenges
