AB - This study is a qualitative inquiry into the identity and dilemmas that christian counselors usually go through and its purpose is to prepare alternatives for the strategic assistance and policy making for the sake of christian counselors. For this, narrative inquiry has been conducted on 20 christian counselors who have a faith for over 10 years and more than master's degree at christian counseling with over 3 years of field experience. The results analyzed using a qualitative analysis software NVivo11 are as follows. In details, the inquiry into the identity and dilemma is discussed in three points of view, respectively: an academic, practical and personal area. In relation to the identity, the first is demands for the secure professionalism in christian counseling. The second is more opportunities for it. The third is the discussion for the establishment of personal identity of christian counselors. In relation to dilemma, firstly christian counselors are trying to combine faith and counseling after they have overcome many dilemmas in the early stage of counseling. Secondly, they experience dilemmas in the same three areas. Finally, they experience dilemmas with the establishment of negative identity caused by others' understanding over the christian counseling. This study provides basic materials to understand their identity and dilemma and also provides detailed information to support them.
