Synopsis:

Become an effective school consultant with THE SCHOOL COUNSELOR AS CONSULTANT: AN INTEGRATED MODEL FOR SCHOOL-BASED CONSULTATION! With a solution-focused, collaborative model of consultation that operates within a systems view of a school, this education text reflects contemporary issues currently confronting school counselors such as those involving inclusion, diversity, and violence. Each chapter includes chapter objectives, personal reflection guides, individual learning activities, case illustrations, a summary, a list of important terms, and an opening vignette that serves as an ongoing, unitary case, developed across chapters. Personal reflections, directed learning activities, and case illustrations help you apply what you have learned.
