Service Providers in Related Disciplines (E

Service providers in related disciplines (e.g., school psychology, school counseling, school social work, etc.) may have difficulty communicating and collaborating due in part to:

A) different training experiences and backgrounds associated with various professional fields
B) an academic versus mental health focus emphasized in the different professions
C) a hierarchy in schools in which administrators are at the top, followed by school psychologists, then school counselors, school social workers, and finally, teachers
D) differing expectations regarding the role of families in the consultation process
