CNSL 577 Consultation in Counselor Education

This graduate course emphasizes the application of theory to practice of consultation with particular attention to several key elements: 1) the role and function of the counselor-trained consultant, 2) the use of counseling skills and knowledge in diverse areas of consultative practice and with a diverse clientele where counseling is not the primary driver of the activity, and 3) the reframing of the consultant psyche to a mindset that is primarily based on expertness, teaching (coaching), diagnosis and evaluation.
