In fact, some of the answers upstairs are not very objective and accurate. Nowadays, the setup of the counseling room will not be strictly regulated and required. Firstly, we have to consider the economy; secondly, we have to consider the applicability; thirdly, we have to combine the counselor's personal theoretical inclination; fourthly, we have to combine the counselor's personal aesthetic style; fifthly, we have to consider the level of recognition of the counselors and the public. Overly complex design just allows us to provide more scourges that interfere with others' attention to counseling. In fact, as long as the combination of its above requirements, then the design of the counseling room is relatively easy.
But your question is about functional areas. In fact, the area of a counseling room is usually just about twenty square meters, except for the room used for group counseling will be larger, usually only need: reception desk, waiting area, file room, test room, counseling room, office, supervision room, conference room, charge room, laboratory. This of course depends on your own financial strength. If you don't have the financial means, the necessary setup is: counseling room (fusion testing room), office (fusion supervisor and meeting room), front desk (fusion fee collection room), file room, waiting area. This is basically reasonable. Calculated as such, a whole counseling agency usually has several permanent counseling rooms, a front desk, two waiting areas, a file room, a conference room, and an area of about 200 square meters. If it is a single person type consulting small institutions, then, the area needs to be about 100 square meters, the minimum is not less than one eighty square meters. Otherwise, it is both small and crowded, giving people a very bad feeling.
