Portrait and Model of A School Counselor

by John M. Littrell

Designed to supplement any school counseling course, this text profiles elementary school counselor Claudia Vangstad--her vision, identity, beliefs, capabilities, and behaviors within the context of her school and community. The authors used Vangstad's experience to construct a model of a school counselor-in-action and provide a broad framework for thinking and working like one. The authors hope to encourage students to evaluate their own beliefs through the study of this example.

[Adam Marchiorello]

Pragmatic approach to elementary school counseling. Gives a basic idea for systemic change in a useful manner. Nice to get away from lofty theoretical "change" and see something that worked.

[Hugh]

One of the most useful books in getting to know what an effective school counselor looks like. A great read for developing school counselors.
