School Counselling in an Asian Cultural Context focuses on the ways
in which cultural setting influences the practice of school
counseling, its effectiveness, and the experience of young people
as they engage in counseling in schools. The mental health of young
people is increasingly a cause for concern, particularly in Asia's
high-pressured league-topping education systems, and the wellbeing
of students is becoming more a part of the wider remit of schools.
Mark Harrison presents a broad overview of the development and
current practice of school counseling in Hong Kong in both local
and international schools and examines this in relation to school
counseling in US and UK settings as well as the wider Asia-Pacific
region. The book brings together two foci: the practice of school
counseling in the Asian cultural context of Hong Kong, and the
effectiveness and experience of school counseling from the
perspective of young people and counselors. The diversity of
schools in Hong Kong makes it a microcosm of trends and practices
in school counseling globally and, as such, offers insights which
will be of interest to students in training; school counselors,
administrators and policy makers in the Asia-Pacific region and
further afield.
