Proven practice tools and techniques for effective school consultations Consultation gives school counselors numerous advantages over individual or small group counseling. Chief among them is the far greater amount of children and adolescents one counselor can reach; by creating a more responsive school environment--consisting of teachers, parents, and others who can make decisions that children cannot--the counselor can positively affect all students who pass through that environment. However, making consultation effective requires a high level of knowledge and skill. School Counselor Consultation: Skills for Working Effectively with Parents, Teachers, and Other School Personnel represents the most comprehensive resource available for understanding the entire consultation process. Unlike other consultation books that focus on theory, School Counselor Consultation emphasizes proven practice techniques. These include: * What to say to parents and teachers about referring students to the school counselor * What to ask teachers to assist in formulating successful interventions * How to make the most of parent conferences * How to plan for, execute, and follow-up on consultation sessions * A five-step approach to conducting an individual consultation * How to plan and present psychoeducational workshops to parents and teachers This hands-on resource also features many forms and checklists--including consultation record forms, a sample agenda, surveys, and a crisis management plan--that you can use in practice. In addition, four appendices cover Adlerian theory, the American School Counselor Association and American Counseling Association Codes of Ethics, and how to best use this book to build consultation skills. Consultation offers one of the most time-effective and beneficial services a school counselor can provide. A valuable resource for both students and practicing counselors, School Counselor Consultation is the most complete and up-to-date guide to the challenging yet highly rewarding consultation process.

A lesson from the baseball field: In baseball, players with the highest batting average strike out more times than they get on base or hit homeruns. Their athletic mindset knows it's okay to get back up to bat no matter what the outcome may be! 
In his 24 year career in Major League Baseball back in the 1920's, Ty Cobb still holds the highest batting average of all time. He got on base ONLY 3.5 times out of 10, or in statistical terms, had a .366 batting average. He struck out 6.5 times out of 10, yet he is known as a legend! The athletic mindset says, ''Be like a batter!'' If you have an idea, share it whether you think they'll like it or not. And if you do strike out, just brush yourself off, and get up to bat againâ€¦ just keep on swinging! Become a legend in whatever you want to accomplish.
