The School Counselor's Bible,
By
This review is from: Counseling in Schools: Essential Services and Comprehensive Programs (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
There is an acute public health crisis in this nation; a crisis precipitated by the burden of suffering experienced by children with mental health needs, and their families. Today's students are challenged by an array of concern that directly impact their well-being. Child abuse, family dysfunction, economic dislocation, and the prevalence of violence, sex, and the objectification of woment in our popular culture all influence childrens' lives each day. Children represent 100% of our future. Therefore fostering social and emotional health in children as a component of healthy child development must be a national priority. The services of the school counselor should be aimed at preventing problems, focusing on developmental issues, and addressing critical issues that pose an immediate threatto the student's emotional social, and psychological well-being. Contemporary school counseling services are essential to a schools' educational misssion. John Schmidt's text provides an overview of the school counseling profession, including the components of a comprehensive program of services and the current legal, ethical and professional issues that are important to school counselors. It is not only a scholarly presentation of the responsibilities and ethical obligations of the school counselor, it is also a practical guide for beginning counselors. Other topics include the history of the school counseling profession, the varying roles of the school counselor, individual versus group practice, and student appraisal. This book is highly recommended for student's in school counseling programs, as well as beginning counselors.
