Index

“School Counseling Practicum and Internship: 30 Essential Lessons provides thorough, practical lessons for school counselor educators to integrate into practicum and internship classes. These lessons cover many of the essential topics that school counselors-in-training are encountering in clinical work and need guidance on. Students will benefit greatly from the thought-provoking activities and useful forms in this text.”

Clare Merlin

“This is a working manual—a guide book to be consulted time and time again. This book will become worn and dog-eared from use when the intern becomes a school counselor.”

Robert Gracia

University of Massachusetts, Boston

“This text provides the hands-on support that new school counselors need to be successful in their positions.”
