Recenzje

“With an expert blend of theory and practice, this exciting and timely text clearly explains a deeply systemic model for conducting school counseling. Approaching the work with keen awareness that students are active learners in complex intersectional contexts, the authors provide invaluable ideas for empowering school communities to develop collaborative skills for addressing today's educational and mental health needs.”

Carey Dimmitt, Ph.D., Professor, UMass Amherst and Director of the Ronald H. Fredrickson Center for School Counseling Outcome Research and Evaluation, USA

 

“An important and necessary text - Drs. Lemberger-Truelove and Bowers Parker are complex thinkers who communicate their ideas clearly. To make real change in students’ lives, school counselors must be able to think and act on both an individual and ecological level simultaneously. This text provides practical strategies for school counselors wanting to address the complex challenges today’s students encounter.”

George McMahon, Ph.D., Clinical Associate Professor and Associate Department Head at the University of Georgia, USA

 

“Finally, a textbook for school counseling that considers the social determinants of mental health, academic achievement, and the need to modify school environmental conditions inextricably linked to student outcomes! ASE theory can potentially transform how school counselors provide therapeutic interventions in schools, including targeting multiple levels of influence.”

Joseph M. Williams, Ph.D., Professor of Counseling at The University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill, USA
