Preparing you for real-world practice, THE TRANSFORMED SCHOOL COUNSELOR, Third Edition teaches you to effectively use theories, data-driven decision-making, leadership, advocacy, and consultation to improve your future clients' scholastic achievement and foster social justice. Thoroughly integrating the ASCA National Model throughout, the text provides an excellent overview of how the school counseling profession has transformed to successfully meet the needs of 21st-century students.
