School counseling in the 21st century requires a new set of skills
and practices than seen in past decades. With a sharper focus on
social justice, the experiences and challenges for marginalized
groups, and more open discussions as to issues students face,
school counselors must be best equipped to handle all types of
diverse students and situations. School counselors and guidance
programs must address multicultural needs, underserved populations,
and students with issues ranging from mental illness to family
issues to chronic-illnesses and LGBTQ+ identities. Moreover, they
must be prepared to guide students to learning success and
adequately prepare them for future careers. The challenges students
face in the 21st century lead to new ways to prepare, support, and
educate school counselors in modern educational atmospheres with
student bodies that are handling vastly different challenges,
identities, and lifestyles. School counselors must navigate the
profession with information on best practices, techniques, and 21st
century skillsets that can adequately support and help all
students. The Research Anthology on Navigating School Counseling in
the 21st Century provides emerging research on the best practices
in school counseling, along with methods, techniques, and
professional development initiatives to better understand diverse
student populations, needs, and challenges. This book will not only
focus on how school counselors must adapt and learn in their own
professional careers, but also how school counseling is functioning
in the 21st century with the new concerns and obstacles students
must face and overcome. The chapters provide a holistic view of how
counselors are navigating their positions to best serve their
students through effective practices, programs, and new tools and
technologies. This book is ideal for school counselors, therapists,
school psychologists, counseling educators, administrators,
practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students who are
interested in school counseling in the 21st century.
