According to the target area, the tasks of psychological counseling are divided into corrective and therapeutic effects, and tasks related to the development of the client as a person, partner, student, or professional. The purpose of the study is to investigate dialogue in psychotherapeutic relations in psychological counseling during stress. The theoretical method of the research is the theoretical investigation of the dialogue in psychotherapeutic relations in psychological counseling. The penetration of the concept of "dialogue" into counseling psychology is naturally connected with the fact that communication between the client and the consultant began to be thought of as a dialogue, as a result of which new and integrative appeared approaches in psychological counseling. M.R. Arpentieva and F.E. Vasilyuk created metasystems of counseling and psychotherapy that analyze their processes and results as dialogical.
