Counselling programmes in schools are communicative events organised in group or individual sessions depending on the students needs. However, just like any other naturally occurring conversation, there is a tendency of the interlocutors to deviate from the topic due to instances of miscommunication and these necessitate repair strategies to refocus the conversation. This study, therefore, sought to examine the conversation repair strategies employed by teacher-counsellors and student-counsellees during counselling sessions in secondary schools in Kenya.
