counsellors
Those who advise
Counsellors is the British spelling of counselors—people who give guidance or advice.
A counsellor may work professionally in therapy, schools, or legal settings: The marriage counsellors helped them communicate better.
Camp counsellors supervise children at summer programs.
In some Commonwealth countries, counsellor is also a diplomatic rank or local government title.
