Introduction to School Counseling

This comprehensive graduate-level text prepares readers to handle the problems and responsibilities they?ll face as professional school counselors, preschool through to high school. Packed with real life examples and case descriptions, the book provides strategies for preventing and responding to social and emotional problems, improving educational outcomes, and helping children score at optimum levels on high-stakes tests. Multicultural techniques for counselors, drawn from both current literature and the author?s own experience growing up and later teaching in an inner-city environment, are included, along with techniques for assisting children with undocumented and language-minority parents.
