Introduction to School Counseling: Theory, Research, and Practice (2nd Edition)

Introduction to School Counseling gives school counsellors in training a full introduction to the profession, with the most attention on the tasks at the heart of the role and on practical ways to carry them out. It shows how counsellors bring a counselling outlook to the particular setting of a school.

The second edition covers the fourth edition of the ASCA National Model, the American School Counselor Association’s framework for school counselling programmes, along with the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), multitiered systems of support (MTSS) and school-wide positive behavioural interventions and supports (SWPBIS). Each chapter pairs research with the use of data to plan and improve a counsellor’s work, and a companion website offers slides, templates, handouts and video links for students, with a test bank for instructors.
