Fifteen CWVDs and 11 clients (N = 26) were interviewed and data were analysed thematically. Findings show that CWVDs used their set of skills to build trustworthy therapeutic relationships through genuineness, established here and now relations in therapeutic encounter effectively, and produced meaningful outcomes. Findings of this research indicate the need to reconsider the field of counselling around pluralist, inclusive and multicultural paradigms.en10.1080/03069885.2017.1393496info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCounsellors with visual disabilities; pluralism; qualitative researchArticle2-s2.0-85031940813
