In the context of the inclusive mindset of modern society, as a social value, this paper opens the question of social inclusion of people with mental disabilities in one of the many sociological areas, specifically in the field of professional application of the target group of people with mental disabilities in the labor market. Getting a job is not just a matter of earning; it's also about the sense of self-esteem and value one brings to the world. The aim of this paper is to describe the specifics of career counseling arising from the fact that a student with a given disability is influenced by the impacts of intellectual disability in certain aspects of preparation for a profession or independent life. Vocational counseling can show people with intellectual disabilities that they are capable of achieving things they didn't even know were possible for them. This has a huge positive impact on their self-esteem and overall quality of life. Quality professional counseling contributes to breaking stereotypes and prejudices, which often limit people with mental disabilities in society.References
