Limited Scope

Counseling psychology and school counseling programs have been historically aligned since the inception of their respective professions. Given current trends, there appear to be differences in the foci and approach to training and professional engagement in the two disciplines. The current investigation surveyed programs in which counseling psychology and school counseling programs were housed within the same department or college to identify areas of collaboration. The survey and journal reviews revealed a divide in the areas of curriculum, service delivery, and professional organization engagement. There appeared to be better collaboration in research, although limited in scope. Although counseling psychology and school counseling continue to have shared values, current trends in curriculum needs, accreditation and professional foci suggest a limited scope of collaboration. Research may be an area in which the two professions can remain professionally engaged. We offer suggestions for increasing collaborative activities.

Counseling psychologists and school counselors share some similarities in their history, training, and experiences. Although these similarities have fostered a common interest in educational and developmental interventions among children and some shared theoretical language, there remains several hurdles to effectively collaborating created by the significant differences in these two professions.

Lack Of Knowledge

Romano and Kachgal argue for greater collaboration between counseling psychology and school counseling. Although their proposal has considerable merit, a variety of barriers to collaboration—including professional jealousies and turf, the lack of knowledge and interest of most counseling psychologists in schools, and the availability of benefits to sustain the partnership for all parties—must be addressed. We argue that adopting shared conceptual frameworks that return to and extend the roots of both disciplines is needed to foster and sustain the proposed partnership. Three conceptual models are presented.

Counseling And Counseling Psychology

Despite an early shared history with school counseling, counseling psychology has, over time, distanced itself from the schools. Current circumstances with regard to public education and questions about the relevance of counseling psychology’s graduate training programs within schools and colleges of education have resurrected consideration of a partnership between school counseling and counseling psychology. In this response, the authors question the motives and sincerity of counseling psychology’s embracing school counseling as a partner, as well as the feasibility of the proposed partnership.

Counseling psychology and school counseling have become quite removed from each other despite sharing a common history, having similar values, and the fact that many training programs for the two disciplines coexist in the same university department or college. This article argues for a stronger integration of the two specialties to advance their contributions to pre–K-12 education and the nation’s youth. Counseling psychology, with its strong commitment to career psychology, counselor training and supervision, multiculturalism, prevention, and scientific inquiry, is well positioned among psychological specialties to exert major influence in the educational enterprise. Models of school counselor training and service delivery have been recently developed and offer numerous opportunities for collaboration between counseling psychologists and school counselors. A collaborative model that encompasses training curricula, research, service, and professional organization dimensions of the specialties is presented. Challenges that may impede a stronger partnership between counseling psychology and school counseling, as well as suggestions for addressing them, are also discussed.
