Book Description

With Dougherty's PSYCHOLOGICAL CONSULTATION AND COLLABORATION IN SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS, 5e, you will see how human service professionals help others work more effectively to fulfill their work-related or caretaking responsibilities to individuals, groups, organizations, and communities. This practical text uses a proven generic model for application, surveys various approaches to consultation, examines the organizational context of consultation, and reviews the numerous ethical and professional challenges that today's consultants face. By following this book's structure, you can develop or refine your own personal model of consultation. Numerous new and proven case studies bring concepts to life. A new focus on prevention, more information on school-based consulting and working with non-mainstream families, and some of the latest qualitative data gathering techniques and evaluation methods more thoroughly prepare you for professional success.

1.0 out of 5 stars Would not recommend, January 8, 2011
By 
olivia717 (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Psychological Consultation and Collaboration in School and Community Settings (Hardcover)
Dry, redundant, full of typos and looks unfinished. The author did not bother proofreading, as he left things like, "blah, blah, blah is similar to what was mentioned in ." The examples were boring and unhelpful. This was a recommended book for my graduate level consulting class, but I would not recommend this book to anyone who wishes to expand their knowledge. As another reviewer mentioned, this book is way overpriced...I wish I could get my money back.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very useful for the class, August 16, 2007
I took a class on consultation and collaboration at the graduate level for School Psychology. I found the text to be very redundant, and the case studies to be quite dry.
