c. collaborative consultation
d. benefits of consultation in reaching more students
e. equal partnership between consultant and consultee

Accepted Answer

Consultation is a problem-solving approach in which a professional, known as the consultant, provides expertise and guidance to another individual or group, known as the consultee, in order to address a specific issue or concern. In the context of school counseling, the role of a school counselor as a consultant is to work collaboratively with teachers, parents, and other school staff to support the academic, social, and emotional needs of students.

The school counselor as a consultant operates within the framework of the triadic-dependent model, which involves the counselor, the consultee, and the student. This model emphasizes the importance of collaboration and communication between all parties involved in the consultation process. The school counselor acts as a facilitator, providing guidance and support to the consultee in developing and implementing strategies to address the student's needs.

Collaborative consultation is a key aspect of the school counselor's role as a consultant. This approach involves the counselor and consultee working together as equal partners to identify and address the student's concerns. By working collaboratively, the counselor and consultee can leverage their respective expertise and perspectives to develop effective interventions and support strategies for the student.

The benefits of consultation in reaching more students are significant. By working with teachers, parents, and other school staff, the school counselor can extend their impact beyond individual counseling sessions and reach a larger number of students. Through consultation, the counselor can provide support and guidance to educators and parents in addressing a wide range of student needs, ultimately contributing to a positive and supportive school environment.

In summary, the role of a school counselor as a consultant involves working collaboratively with teachers, parents, and other school staff to address the academic, social, and emotional needs of students. Through the use of a problem-solving approach, the counselor operates within the triadic-dependent model, emphasizing collaboration and communication. By working as equal partners with consultees, the counselor can extend their impact and reach more students through consultation.
