Abstract | Adopting and addressing the use of technology by counselors and by counselor educators is not a new task that has emerged with the creation of the Internet. Some of the attitudinal barriers to the adoption of technology are identified. Barriers such as resistance to change or cyberphobia; lack of resources and support; time constraints; learning styles and technology styles; and larger system issues are discussed. Approaches to teaching; pairing novices with experts; one-on-one support; achievable developmental competencies for guidance; and counselor and client incentives need to be emphasized to make technology use more attractive and real to the counselor or counselor educator. This article explores the contemporary definition of a counselor Luddite, looks at scales used to measure attitudes toward computers, and suggests obstacles and ways to overcome them in working with technology-resistant counselors and counselor educators.
