Data was analyzed using SPSS software version 20.0 resulting in descriptive statistics with mean, percentage and Pearson Correlation. Results of the study show that Counseling Head Teachers obtained a high percentage of scores for seven domains (selfawareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, empathy, social skills, spirituality and maturity). Nevertheless, percentage of scores are moderate for the sub domains of emotional intelligence that include helping others, political awareness, change catalyst, building relationship, collaboration, teamwork, and communication.
