For special education, school psychology, and school counselor courses in collaborative consultation.
Offering a genuine difference, this practical text treats school consultation as a collaborative, problem-solving endeavor. It covers the two primary theories of consultation―behavior and mental health―in detail, and summarizes several others. Using numerous actual examples, it gives readers a broad overview of the what, why, and how of school consultation. The hands-on experience of this author keeps the narrative focused, and imbues it with the common sense necessary to help special and general educators deal with the everyday challenges of at-risk, mainstreamed, and included pupils.
