Document Summary
Consultation is the process in which the counselor works with the parent, teacher, or another adult with the goal of bringing out positive change in the child/client. Think of the immediate problem as part of the larger system not only understanding how problems are solved but also to understand how they were developed, maintained, or avoided. Behavioural consultation includes: problem identification, problem analysis, selection of a target behaviour, behaviour objectives, plan design and implementation, and evaluation of the behavioural change program. Five stages of problem solving: coming together, defining a shared vision, developing a strategic plan to accomplish goals and objectives, taking action on the plan, and evaluating progress by determining if specific objectives are accomplished. Reasons for collaboration: increase resources, enhance effectiveness, decrease fragmentation, cost efficiency. Consultation and collaboration are indirect ways to help children in need. Consultation refers to the one-on-one interaction between the counselor and a significant adult in the child"s life.
