International Journal of Counseling and Psychotherapy (IJCP) employs a rigorous double-blind peer-review process to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity, quality, and originality. All manuscripts undergo an initial editorial screening to assess their relevance, originality, and alignment with the journal’s scope and ethical policies. Manuscripts are then processed and selected by the journal's editorial team and reviewed by peer reviewers to ensure the quality of the published work. The IJCP utilizes Open Journal Systems (OJS), a platform that streamlines the editorial workflow by offering tools for submission, peer review, and publication, while also supporting the open-access dissemination of academic content.
