Review :
"I appreciate (1) the consistent references to multiculturalism throughout the text and (2) the continual emphasis upon the comprehensive developmental program approach. The author ties these two concepts very well throughout." "The tables, case examples, discussion questions and internet sites in each chapter are extremely helpful. Also, this text thoroughly discusses the most pertinent topics in school counseling." "Dr. Sciarra is Associate Professor of Counselor Education and Chairperson of the Department of Counseling, Rehabilitation, Special Education, and Research at Hofstra University. Besides a doctorate in Counseling, Dr. Sciarra holds permanent certification as school counselor (K-12) from New York State. Before moving into academia, Dr. Sciarra worked as a school counselor in a multicultural environment in New York City. In addition, Dr. Sciarra also has years of experience as an agency counselor working primarily with Latino families and adolescents. He is fluently bilingual (Spanish). Research interests include school counseling, multicultural counseling, Latino families, and cultural identity development. Dr. Sciarra has published numerous articles in all of these areas."
