Special Topics in School-Based Counseling
Part II examines special topics in school-based counseling, including advancing one's clinical skills in counseling, professional development as a counselor, and emerging models for difficult service delivery areas in school mental health. Chapter 9 focuses on the development of clinical skills for counselors, emphasizing both professional and personal development. We provide a self-evaluation survey for counselors (Resource G) to facilitate self-awareness as a first step to goal setting for a personal and professional growth plan (Resource H). Finally, Chapter 10 addresses difficult service delivery areas (i.e., family support services, medication management, substance-abuse counseling) as well as other important topics—social skills programs, vocational counseling, counseling vulnerable populations, and program development and funding.
