Overview

Group Counseling Leadership Skills for School Counselors: Stretching Beyond Interventions equips readers with the foundational knowledge and effective techniques they need to create diverse spaces and lead groups in PreK-12 schools and communities. The text employs the TRATE My Group framework to help future school counselors and leaders approach daily group interactions with a new perspective and increased intentionality on the larger process. Opening chapters provide a summary of professional training and practice standards, present key theoretical concepts and terms, and introduce the TRATE My Group framework, an approach designed to foster culturally engaged group work practices for task, psychoeducation, and counseling/growth groups. Additional chapters narrow the focus on specific populations commonly served in public PreK-12 school settings and illustrate how to apply the TRATE My Group framework. They address various social issues that affect public school environments, including social justice advocacy, technological competence, and inclusive excellence. The final chapter provides readers with resources, articles, professional development opportunities, and activities that can be applied in multiple situations.
