The author emphasizes the need to obtain empirical data on the communicative characteristics of practicing consulting psychologists and the dynamics of their communicative qualities in the process and outcome of their professional activities. The significance of studying this problem is highlighted for addressing the tasks of optimizing the training programs for practical psychologists, improving the quality of practical psychological work, while noting the insufficient investigation of this issue in domestic psychological science. All of the above has predetermined the choice of the subject and object of the study. The subject of the research is the features of the communicative potential and its dynamics among psychologists engaged in consulting practice. The empirical object of the research includes practicing consulting psychologists (50 individuals) with 10–15 years of consulting experience. The following methods were used: "Emotional Response Scale" (A. Mehrabian, N. Epstein); "Diagnosis of Communication Features" (V.N. Nedashkovsky); "Diagnosis of Communication Style Type" (V.V. Boyko); "Self-Regulation and Success in Interpersonal Communication" (V.N. Kunitsyna). For statistical data processing, "Statistics 13.4" was employed: descriptive statistics and correlation analysis (Spearman's coefficient). The main conclusions of the research are as follows. The identified high empathy of consulting psychologists can be regarded as a significant determinant of the effectiveness of psychological counseling; simultaneously, the high probability of developing professional burnout syndrome, or "compassion fatigue," is noted. A complex combination of varying degrees of professionally significant communicative qualities of consulting psychologists has been established: high levels of self-esteem, partnership communication style, satisfaction with communication with close individuals, sensitivity, and trust in people; a low degree of some communicative qualities that hinder communication, and an increased degree of others, which may lead to the development of professional deformation. There is a complex transformation of the communicative potential of consulting psychologists associated with experience: the development of empathetic abilities, significant overcoming of shyness and conflict, strengthening of partnership orientation, and a reduction in overt forms of aggression while simultaneously accumulating negative communication experiences and increasing pessimistic attitudes, reflecting both positive aspects of professional development and risks of professional deformation. Shyness, conflict, and empathy are the most dynamic and sensitive to the influence of professional experience, undergoing the most significant changes during the professional development of consulting psychologists.

The relevance of this topic is due to the need to maintain and develop the potential of students from the indigenous peoples of the North (IPN) in a rapidly changing world of digital technologies and nanosystems. Resilience, as a psychological characteristic, allows students to cope with difficulties and adapt to changes. Studying the relationship between resilience and professional orientation can provide a basis for developing effective support programs aimed at successful socialization and professional development of students from the IPN. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the predictive role of professional orientation in students from the IPN. The study aims to identify how resilience components and event experiences can serve as a predictor of successful career orientation and choice.The following methods were used: The Resilience Test (S. Maddi, D. Leontiev) was used to assess an individual's ability to cope with stressful situations and adapt to changes. The author's questionnaire included several blocks of questions (general information about the respondents; future plans to identify goals and expectations; awareness of the world of professions and educational trajectories; the richness of life events, including academic and extracurricular activities; current attitudes towards education; subject interests; key moments (academic, personal, and social); and areas of interest. Data processing was carried out using the IBM SPSS Statistics 23.00 software package. A high level of resilience, active participation of schoolchildren in planning their lives, and reflection on significant events have a positive impact on their desire to analyze future trajectories, including professional self-determination. Research on this issue can significantly enhance the psychological and pedagogical support for Indigenous students, improving their adaptation and professional orientation in modern conditions.

The problem of developing a program for the formation of sexual identification among students as a structural link of self-awareness at all levels of education is relevant, however, this methodological program is not yet available in modern Russian pedagogy and psychology. This circumstance determined the purpose of the study: the development and description of the above-mentioned psychological and pedagogical program. The work carried out allowed us to determine the main goal of the program – the formation of sexual identification among students of preschool, primary school and adolescence by teaching them adequate sexual characteristics of behavior, acceptance of their "physical Self", the development of sexual self-awareness and the resolution of intrapersonal problems. The article presents the practice of implementing the program, expected results, and conditions of implementation. The stages of the project working group's activity are reflected. When developing the program for the formation of sexual identification, theoretical and empirical research methods were used: a comprehensive analysis of literature, a method of modeling, abstracting, concretizing, studying and generalizing pedagogical experience. In addition, the organizational structure of the concept of the formation of sexual identification among students is revealed, reflecting the directions of psychological and pedagogical support for the process of forming sexual identification for all subjects of educational relations and levels of general education. The study identifies the emerging features of sexual identification in the relationship between men and women, in family life, in professional activities, as well as self-reflection as a gender carrier. In the course of the research, the organizational and methodological expected results of the program were determined, which undoubtedly determines its practical significance and the long-term prospects of the work being carried out.
