Transforming the School Counseling Profession explores the implementation of systemic, data-driven school counseling programs. Using easy-to-understand language and illustrated with numerous applied examples, case studies and vignettes, it connects theory to practice with real examples of practitioners applying concepts in their own practices.

School counseling is changing rapidly, and the 6th Edition accurately reflects these developments in practice and the literature. More than 60% of references are dated 2015 or later; the text fully conforms to the 2024 CACREP standards and reflects changes in the ACA Code of Ethics (ACA, 2014), ASCA Ethical Standards (ASCA, 2022a), and American Psychiatric Association’s DSM-5-TR (APA, 2022); and more.
